I highly recommend staying in Scott's place! The house and room were clean, pleasant and fully equipped. The room is private, and the bed is very comfortable. Scott has thought of many small touches that make for a very enjoyable stay. The location of his house is ideal. Easy walking distance to excellent restaurants, coffee, shopping, public transportation and more...yet on a very quiet and safe street. I felt very comfortable staying there as a single female traveler. Scott was very responsive...quickly and generously addressing any questions or issues. I very much enjoyed my brief stay and will definitely seek his place out again on my next trip to Portland.
