I didn't realize until I arrived how unsafe some areas of Portland are. That said, I'm so grateful to have picked Susanne's place! I felt safer walking around Susanne's neighborhood than I did in China Town in the middle of the day. Susanne and her husband were quick to respond to all communication, let us check in early and out late, and went above and beyond to make my colleagues and I feel right at home. I look forward to coming back to town and staying here again!
