Brian welcomed me really late on the first night - traffic from Seattle was terrible on a Friday nite. So being welcomed and shown around was definitely nice because it felt really home-y and warm feeling. You can definitely feel good vibes in the place. Its a big enough space for me and my dog as well as a nice couch bed for my friend to sleep on as well. The place was well renovated, easy to get to you. The back yard was also really nice. They offered various teas and coffee which was great. I love the historic part of Portland and was easy to get to Richmond/Hawthorne area where there were amazing places to eat and drink. The recommendations they provided were Top Notch and on-point. The Mt. Tabor park was super close and since it was clear on the last day i was able to enjoy breathtaking views of Downtown Portland, Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helens. I got the Airbnb for a wedding downtown and it was incredibly easy to transit via my own car and by lyft to get downtown. I can go on and on about my short stay-it was lovely staying at the panda place.
