This place is WOW. The pics are spot on, no surprises. The hosts are amazing and responsive.
The unit is in a detached building to the rear of the main residence. Wonderful design touches and "extra" throughout – coffee, sugar, a few spices and some condiments in the frig. Super comfy furniture (nice firm couch for those needing the back support). If you're a smoker , you won't be treated as a second class citizen – there's an ashtray outside and the hosts are cool with you being a responsible smoker on their property. The game room is awesome.
The property is not in the "thick" of Portland culture, as it were, but it's totally accessible to everything you'd want to experience in the area – close to the freeway to get to slightly farther away places like the Columbia River Gorge or Mt. Hood. Also on an amazing bus line (#14) that will take you straight downtown by way of the famous Hawthorne District (which passes by Division St. as well on its way).
As described in the property overview, there is a full flight of stairs to climb to get to the unit, so keep that in mind if it's an issue. It wasn't for us, but you do have to walk it to get to the super cute unit you've reserved.
One of the best AirBnB's I've ever stayed at. Thank you Cindy!!
