My friend and I went to Portland for a Father's Day weekend getaway, and we lucked out by staying at Ali and David's place. Their house is a beautiful heritage home, and the upstairs area where we stayed is very comfortable and clean. It's in an excellent location, very close to NE Alberta St., plus with a superb cafe (Extracto Coffee) and restaurants in walking distance. Ali and David were great about communicating with us before we arrived, answering questions quickly. Meeting them was a joy as they are super friendly and engaging people. I will definitely put Ali and David's place at the top of my list for return visits to Portland. They and their house are real gems.
