Corinne's place is dope and Corinne is great. The apartment has a really cool aesthetic, and divides the space in a really nice way. The balcony is a great place to hang out, the kitchen is pretty good for such a small space, the bed is the coolest loft I've ever seen and soooo comfortable.
Check in was super easy, as was dealing with laundry, trash, etc. Place was clean. Worked well for working remotely.
Getting to downtown is super easy - I literally used the public transportation once in my 4ish weeks in Portland - to get from the airport to Corinne's place. Walked 99% of the time.
The same goes for getting to nature - it's a 10 minute walk the other direction to the awesome Washington Park and giant adjacent Forest Park. Highly recommend those areas. Shocking it's right next to a major metropolitan area.
My only complaint is that there was an $80 fee for household supplies, but as far as I could tell, the household supplies I was supplied with were just the leftovers of the previous tenant -- or, at the very least, not newly supplied for my visit. Nothing wrong with that in isolation, and maybe I was wrong, but I think charging that much for it seems a kind of disingenuous.
That said, I think the cost overall is very good, and I had very positive interactions with Corinne. Whenever there was a problem, she responded almost instantly. I had a wifi problem, and she gave me some reimbursement as a result. She gave me all kinds of cool recommendations on activities, as well as explanations of useful information, and was, overall, not only a great host but a great Portland point-of-contact. And she was a pleasure to interact with as a whole. Very human-to-human.
If you want window blinds, keep in mind that there aren't any, so you will have to get some temporary ones yourself. I thought I would, but I actually ended up deciding they weren't necessary.
Super minor, but there's a little church / Catholic school across the street which I found very positive to be next to.
I left a cheese grater there, so if you make use of it, you're welcome! Haha.
All in all, I highly recommend this location and feel confident that any of her other airbnbs would also be a great place to stay!
