Location is very handy - it's on the Red Line (light rail from airport) and close to downtown. Be aware that once you step outside you are in an area with many homeless people. They were not aggressive, tho' their monologues were assertive. But the local car-break-in stats are high.
The host was very communicative and informative at the beginning and the end. However, the bathroom sink was blocked from the start and was never fixed, despite assurances. Statistically, it is very likely it will be fixed by the time you might go there.
In a 1930s style building, this apartment had been renovated via the consistent technique of applying thick white paint wherever possible.. Including the door jamb, so door required an almighty shove and/or 2-3 hands heaving on the knob and the lock to open or close. Would be pretty funny if on Candid Camera. But sometimes made you wonder if you could ever leave.
Laugh or cry? You could call all this good "Portland weird" fun. Similarly for the moderate overall cleanliness of the premises. Your call.
But hipsters beware. The internet signal is a mystery. It comes and goes. Sometimes app-measured download rate is perfectly decent, even while a film stream-loaded to the TV has crashed 1 hour in, and after multiple re-starts then plays in a checkered pattern. Well... maybe you should have been out getting some culture instead of watching TV... yes... your fault.
Props where due: (i) an abundance of coffee pods provided for the semi-functional Keurig machine; (ii) a mobile AC box machine was parked in the kitchen doorway, pointing toward the main room. Very loud, very obtrusive, but key if you happen to cop a Portland heatwave (the whole city grinds to a halt due to lack of AC) - so actually a commendable stop-gap measure.
Bohemian Oasis: a good name, and potentially true. Or "potentially not untrue".... your call.
