If you are searching for a safe and cozy space in Portland, do yourself a favor, and book Gail’s AirBnB. The apartment is immaculate, but also warm and home-y. It is also a larger space than the photos show, so if one person is ready to turn in for the night, another can watch TV or talk on the phone in the living room space, which is actually further away in the apartment than it would seem! You are a quick walk from Hawthorne which has lovely shops and cafe’s, plus we personally liked being a bit further from the downtown Portland area and in a real neighborhood. Truly fabulous hosts who go above and beyond, please stay with them, you will be so glad you did! *Bonus* you will love their dog, Alva!!!!
