Mackenzie is a great host and her place was exactly what we needed. We had a family emergency that required us to seek last-minute lodging on the same day as our flight into Portland. After a truly horrific experience booking with another host in the neighborhood (“stunning oldie but goodie” hosted by Jessica), who extorted $100 from us and 4 hours of time/sleep I will never get back, booking with Mackenzie was a breeze.
Mackenzie was responsive, helpful, friendly, and accommodating with our check-in/check-out timing issues. The entire place was spotless and still felt brand new, the king bed and pillows were so comfortable, the bathroom was roomy and thoughtfully appointed, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We visited all our favorite neighborhood haunts (Lauretta Jean, St. Honoré, Magna Kusina, Collage, Powell’s). Everywhere we wanted to go was within close walking distance or a quick bus ride away.
This is by far the best Airbnb experience I have had in Portland.
