Renata was great, I arrived later than expected and she had the place ready and unlocked for me when I arrived. It was a cool little guest house, with full cable, DVR all of your cooking essentials and plenty of coffee to keep me happy. The A/C saved me as there were a couple 90 degree days while I was there. The garden was awesome and I wandered around and explored the neighborhood.

I had a couple friends visit me and Renata asked if she needed to move her car for us, which was super nice of her. The bathroom was equipped with all of the soaps and washes, which helped because I didn't bother bringing them through airport security. I was there for 4 nights so having a dresser and closet to unpack my stuff was a nice touch.

Having free Wi-Fi was great, since my phone didn't get service up in those hills.

I was only a $20 cab ride from downtown Portland, the secluded/private entrance was perfect, since I came home pretty late a few nights and didn't feel like a jerk waking anyone up.

There is a hippy grocery store that sells some good snack food and beer! McMenamins was great and I will definitely be staying here when I visit again!
