Sherold & John's home is a wonderful location for anyone wanting to explore the Portland area. It was around 15 minutes to downtown (by car or Uber/Lyft), close to Washington Park, and with easy access to the Columbia Gorge. The neighborhood is one of the highlights - quiet, picturesque, safe, and easy to get around (although some form of Sat Nav is probably essential given the winding roads!). The suite is the downstairs portion of the house, and although there's an adjoining door, John and Sherold respected our privacy, and asked if they needed to get in for any reason. Their garden was a bonus, and although we were out most of the time, anyone coming for a longer period would I'm sure appreciate it - especially the views. The dogs are also very friendly! All the essentials are provided, and as per the description. Do note that although there is a kitchen area, as per the description there is no cooker (just a microwave). This was perfectly good for us - after all, why be in Portland if you're not planning to eat out! John and Sherold were very hospitable, providing any extra advice if needed, and I appreciated John asking for any ways they could improve the experience (the sign of a good host!). I couldn't think of any! An added bonus on this trip was the air conditioning - my sense is that this uncommon in Portland, but very welcome given the mid 90's temperatures. Overall a great location and great hosts!
