Comfortable, clean and cozy! Daniel’s place is close to everything you could ever want to see in Portland, whether using public transport or driving (there’s ample street parking in the area too). There are wonderful restaurants less than 5 minutes away, a movie theater and 2 locally acclaimed ice cream shops within 2 blocks and a grocery store just as close in case you’d like to cook for yourself in the little kitchenette provided.
The unit is a partial basement, so if you are over 6’ the ceilings may be an issue. But it does mean the temperature stays very comfortable even on hotter days! (And the ac is extremely effective).
The space isn’t huge, but if you’re in Portland to visit what are you doing tooting around an Airbnb for anyway? There’s plenty of space to use Daniel’s place as a home base, plan your moves and return to to loaf around after a full day of being out & about. There’s even a basket of maps and brochures if you want to really drill down on some local hotspots. Additionally the couch is, and I cannot stress this enough, extremely comfortable.
Daniel’s also a wonderful host! He came and introduced himself shortly after we’d arrived and let us know to ask if we needed anything or just wanted to chat! The few times we did have questions the responses were quick and pleasant. We also got to run in to him and his lovely wife a few times as we were coming and going and they are both great to talk to (and very accommodating about a short conversation if you’re running to catch a bus!)
The only thing I would caution is, as others have said, people walking upstairs can be a bit noisy. We didn’t have any problems with it as the only sound that ever really came through were footsteps, but if you are someone who hates living with folks above you, be aware!
Otherwise, I would absolutely recommend staying here to anyone wanting to visit Portland! And I’d totally stay again. Thanks for such a comfy, clean, safe stay Daniel!
