As a host myself, I have to say Ashley's home was impeccable and she was a wonderful host. The house is in an amazing part of portland with some of the best restaurants in town less than a block away without having the associated traffic. I recommend pok pok in particular, if the line isn't too crazy. The room was so comfortable and cute, with a set of guides to the city and all the amenities you would want/ need. Her cat was so adorable and looked just like ours, and her dog was a lovable golden retriever who was fun to pet. I would whole heartedly recommend staying in this gem!
