This was my first Airbnb experience, so I'm glad it was a positive one.
While David reached out to me, we didn't communicate back and forth. The check-in instructions were very clear and the process was easy.
We were sending our daughter off for her first year at Portland State. The unit is less than 2 blocks from the dorm building which made it a perfect basecamp to prep for her dorm move-in day.
Sitting on the shared balcony with a beer from the restaurant below while chatting with locals was unexpected and enjoyable. The surrounding area can be loud. You are downtown after all so there are normal street cleaning, trash collecting, and food truck sounds in the evening.
I would stay here again.
