My family and I were passing through Portland on a road trip and booked James' place. It was perfect, and honestly much bigger than what we probably needed for a family of three, for a single evening. This is a thoughtfully refurbished two-story craftsman home in a great neighborhood (walking distance to fantastic restaurants, breweries, odd shops that make PDX special). For such a large (and presumably older) place, it was incredibly clean and well appointed. There's even an interesting library of books to get lost into if you so wish (I ended up getting side-tracked for an hour in a book about Portland's underbelly history of crime and vice). We didn't use the kitchen, but if we were staying for a longer period, would have made full use to prepare family meals. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, perhaps even with another family.
