My friend and I stayed at Kate's place for 4 nights. Everything was wonderful! It was warm a couple of the days we were there and Kate had plenty of air conditioning in the room (which is upstairs). She provided snacks, water, coffee, fruit, oatmeal, and some cookies. Also she has many bathroom necessities available as well. The shower was amazing and the bed was quite comfortable. There is also a key, to the bedroom so your stuff stays locked and secure.
I hurt my knee on a hike and Kate was soooo kind and caring. She gave me an ice pack and checked up on me. She rents out two rooms in her house and we almost never ran into the other guests. The house the VERY clean and very "Portland". Lots of things to look at and check out in her house. The home is old but has a lot of updated amenities. We definitely felt comfortable and welcomed. Thanks again Kate!
