My mom and I really enjoyed staying in Tamara's home. First, it is very clean (my mom's standard of clean!!) and beautifully decorated. We appreciated the no shoes in the home, since that is what we are accustomed to in our homes. The room is large and comfortable for two people sharing a bed. Bathroom had all the essential amenties if you don't bring your own or forget something . An extra bonus was the lovely garden, which Tamara took time to show us around and then let us eat off the vine a variety of tasty heirloom tomatoes that she grows. Tamara is a thoughtful host, very fast with communication, accommodating (had our room cleaned ahead of schedule) so we could arrive early, and gave us a lot of recommendations around the neighborhood and for future hiking adventures. We took the train into Portland, so it was nice that the home is conveniently located along a few bus lines that takes you to/from the downtown area or the rail, many good places to eat/shop are within walking distance or public transportation.
I would definitely stay here again on trips down to Portland.
