Jesse and Jeff were great hosts. We had our 10 month old with us and this was a very good option. If we were to stay in Portland again we may choose something a little more central as public transit, while convenient from the home, did add significant time onto any outings. That said Jesse and Jeff did tell us that before we booked so that is more an us issue :). If we rented a car, then there would be no issue staying here again. Communication was fantastic.
