Sarah's "Portlandia Pad" was a great place to stay. It was clean and bright and stocked with amenities (toiletries, hand-roasted (by Sarah!) coffee, beer, fresh flowers) that gave an extra sense of welcoming. I cannot overemphasize how well stocked the apartment is. There are lots of clean towels, clean bedclothes, extra blankets, anything you would need to cook simple meals, coffee grinder, coffee maker, water kettle.

Just FYI, you can hear some footsteps in the upstairs unit, but it really isn't a bother as they occur during normal waking hours. Sarah also provides earplugs for light sleepers.

This AirBnB is in a great location. It's walking distance to lots of shops, restaurants, and cafes. Sarah provides a little book with her personal recommendations to sites around the AirBnb as well as the greater Portland area. It's similar to the guidebooks you find in hotels, but a true local's guide to the area.

I had a great stay. Sarah is an excellent host. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone.
