We were very happy with our first AirBnB experience at Allyson and Jose's apartment. The description of the basement was accurate, in fact it was probably larger than I expected, and we had all the amenities we needed during our stay. We could hear the family up above but it didn't bother us at all. Jose was very nice and helpful when he came out to greet us and show us around the apartment. He hit the right chord of being welcoming but also giving us our privacy. Would recommend to anyone staying in Portland and would book again!
