I’ve always had wonderful experiences on Airbnb, and this was the first one that fell short. It was advertised as a quiet oasis, but wasn’t quite as described. The first night there were girls staying in the next room that were not adhering to the quite hours set by the host, and woke me up at 3:00 a.m. I informed the host, and she spoke with them, and they were fine the next night. But the next door neighbor was building a “shed” which looked more like a studio, right outside my bed room window until 11:30 p.m. and woke me up several times. I was in Portland for training and needed rest. The floors are also extremely squeaky, so you can hear anyone walking around, but she does provide earplugs.
The toiletries were awesome, organic, herbal soaps, lotions and creams. The host also supplies water, nuts and energy bars which were extremely thoughtful since you don’t have access to kitchen or other common areas. The entire place is extremely clean with wonderful essential oils being difffused.
I had a hard time sleeping on the bed, as it’s a children’s bed with a four inch mattress, but it may not be an issue for others. The bedroom door also didn’t lock from the inside which made me uneasy.
Being that I booked less than a week before I arrived and it was smack in the middle or Oregon’s high season, I was grateful to have this place to stay.
