I stayed at Kate’s place for 3 weeks this month while participating in a program at Reed College. This was the *perfect* place to stay! Everything was sparkling clean, the bed was very comfortable, and Kate makes sure anything you may need during your stay is available. The house is located in a quiet, safe neighborhood with easy access to public transportation (a bus right around the corner), grocery stores, coffee shops and more. If I visit Portland again in the future, I hope Kate’s house is available as it would be my first choice as a place to stay.
