Robert offers a great place to stay in Portland. It's near Mt. Tabor, so it's a quiet residential neighborhood with a great hill to climb nearby, but it's only a half-hour bus ride to downtown. The room is in the basement, so it's cool and dark and a great place to sleep, and the sitting room is a comfortable place to have breakfast. Great shower. Robert is a very helpful host, providing pamphlets and maps in the room and personal advice when you want it. We recommend it highly. Robert was easily available and respected our privacy. The foldout couch in the sitting area worked fine as a second bed.
