Lynne is a great host. She was concerned with what I wanted or needed for my visit, attempting to anticipate everything. She is comfortable to talk with, not stressful at all. Lynne is very laid back and accommodating.

The description said "cozy" which I think of as "small", but the house is quite large, and the rooms that I had mostly to myself were not "large", but they were bigger than I was expecting. The reason I say they aren't "large" is because they have lower ceilings than most places. Nice bathroom, kitchenette, and bedroom, along with shared laundry right next to the bathroom.

The feel of this place is more of an independent apartment than a roommate situation, which might make it less common for Airbnb, but it was exactly what I was hoping to find.

The neighborhood is amazing. I've always been a fan of the Woodstock/Reed College area, and the home is walking distance from all of that. Her home is on two bus lines that take you almost everywhere on the east side of Portland. Close to MAX, easy to get to Sellwood, Woodstock, 82nd, downtown, and Clackamas Town Center. Very easy for someone taking public transit like me.
