This was my first time using Airbnb and it was a great experience. I got in late the first night and didn't get to meet Nell until the next morning, but I felt her welcoming presence from the moment I walked in the door. Her home is comfortable and looks just like the pictures. She had the room cooled down for me (I got there during the heat wave) and there were chocolates waiting for me. It felt like I was coming to visit a friend, an extra nice, considerate friend!

Nell's home is in a GREAT location. Easy walking to Alberta Street that is packed with restaurants, coffee shops and more. I was bummed I didn't get to spend more time there as I was working a lot during my stay.

I did get to enjoy the back yard and front porch a bit in the mornings and evenings. Both are perfect for sitting and contemplating life while sipping coffee or eating a chicken biscuit from Pine State. Also the bed was comfortable!

Nell and John were friendly, inviting and gave good recommendations for what to do when I wasn't working. I would have liked to have gotten to know them better. My next trip to Portland will include a stay here again. THANK YOU!!
