This was an excellent rental for a quiet, comfortable place to rest, cook my meals, and relax during my time in Portland. It had everything I needed at an affordable rate, and it was conveniently located for short (15min) drives to several natural areas, PDX airport, and attractions around the city. This is a basement apartment in a safe, quiet residential neighborhood, and the host lives in the main house upstairs that is accessed by a different door. The host is very kind and takes care in checking in on you upon arrival, plus providing basic kitchen items like coffee and creamer, a welcome snack, and a few pantry and freezer commodities - but she also did not pry and respected my privacy. The apartment accomodations are good, on the nicer end of the range you tend to get at this price level. The apartment was clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and functional, the washer dryer works well, the internet is good, the smart TV had cable and various apps with one or two free through the host's accounts. The kitchen was great - I cooked all my meals here for a week and was not lacking any dishes, cookware, or spices etc. Dishes must be hand cleaned. There's a small patio that's good for getting fresh air or enjoying Oregon's fine recreational substances. Overall I'm really happy with this rental for my simple needs as a solo traveler who cooks his own food, and values privacy and good sleep. I felt it was a step up from my typical places along those lines in this price range.
