Everything was exactly described except for the fact that the home sits on a hillside, just a word of warning to anyone traveling with a lot of luggage. We'd also arrived right in the midst of a 100+ heat wave, and no central heating meant no central air either. Patrick provided us with two fans though and we survived! The location (less than a 10 minute stroll from a a lot of lovely restaurants and shopping) more than made up for those, and Patrick was the most thoughtful host: he would check in with us once a day to make sure we were comfortable and to make sure we knew he was there to help in any way. The neighborhood is absolutely gorgeous, full of beautiful Victorians and well tended gardens, even alongside the street! His home was chockful of character, including a miniature set of ornamental samurai armor! The bed was perfect for two people, and the bathroom was always spotless. Definitely recommend this location to anyone visiting Portland.
