I am glad to get to leave a second review for this location from the same trip (we took a night off and went to the coast). This has got to be the place to stay if you want an AirBnB near downtown Portland. We went out for drinks last night around 10 on a Monday. With no traffic it is 5 minutes door to door from John's place to pretty much all of downtown. Plus the suburb you will be staying in is very walkable with lots to see. You will not be disappointed!
