Deborah was a gracious host! We stayed with her for 2 weeks. That is a long time for anyone to stay in your house, but we always felt welcomed and comfortable. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. Trader Joe's is a short walk from the house. It made shopping for breakfast and lunch food easy. The upstairs room was large and comfortable. It was a great home away from home. Deborah was kind to let us keep our bicycles in her garage. We biked around the city a few times. The bus stop is also close by. We loved getting to know Teddy and Chloe, Deborah's 2 cats. This was our first time using airbnb and thanks to Deborah, we had a wonderful experience. Since both our children are living in Portland, we hope to come back.
