Brendon contacted me the day before to talk through our arrival and check in process, and we chatted about things to do in Portland too. He also texted when we were arriving to check on us and offer a ride from the train/bus stop which was awesome since it decided to rain. The place was as described, very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was nice and safe. We enjoyed our stay. The only negative is Brendon is a Cubs fan (we're Cardinals fans). :)
