Denise and Brian are the ideal air bnb hosts. I tend to choose air bnb vs hotel mainly because hotels are so expensive now a days. Its always fun to meet the hosts (they live on the floor above). I got a chance to meet them and chat for a bit, very lovely people!! Super friendly and mellow couple :)
Communication before, during, and after the trip was GREAT! They were available via text and Airbnb messenger. I had a few questions before and during my trip and they answered my questions very quick.
Checking in with the door pad-code was soooo convenient!!! I didn’t have to worry about losing a key. Side door was easy to get in and out, very private!!!!
Space/location: very close to everything I wanted to go to in Portland! Quiet neighborhood, plenty of parking. This space is located in their basement, it’s quiet, clean, beautifully decorated, and everything described in their bio. I felt like I was at home. Kitchen is small, but large enough to store everything we needed (beer and food). The entire home was very clean and everything seems newly remodeled. I love their decor too! I see some reviews about noise, I didn’t hear anything during my stay.
