Jim and Jenn’s place was perfect for visiting Portland and the surrounding areas. Great location, clean, beautifully appointed, and comfortable. Highly recommended! The Location: I love this neighborhood! The apartment is on a quiet residential, tree-lined street. Yet, only a block from restaurants, shopping, and the street car that goes right down to the city center. We ate in the neighborhood every night since it was so convenient to drop off our stuff from the day and just run down the street for good food. Salt and Straw is just a few blocks away and an experience you cannot miss! If you park in front of the house it’s paid parking during the week (4hr limit), never had trouble finding parking especially at night. Was a 5 min drive to the Rose and Japanese Gardens, 10 min to Pittock Mansion, Forest Park and Downtown. We Uber’d back from Powell’s bookstore one night and it was less than $8. When we took the train there it only took 10-15 min. We actually walked down to that area our first night and it was a pleasant half hour walk. There are also bike shares everywhere, but my mom doesn’t know how to ride so we stuck to other modes. I took an uber to the airport and it was 22 min, $25. The apartment: The apartment looked recently renovated and everything was new, modern and clean. Be aware that there are stairs since this apartment takes up the second and third floors of the house. The bottom floor had the kitchen, living room, dining, two bedrooms and a full bath. The top floor had two bedrooms and a full bath. One of the top bedrooms actually had a twin futon and a queen futon so it could also be used as an extra sitting room. Beds and rooms were just as described in the listing. People kept were jockeying for time on the couch since it was quite comfy for lounging or napping. Central AC was great for the few days we were there since it was 90° outside, but the house was totally cool and comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with pots and pans, and a few essentials like oil, salt and pepper, tea, coffee, oatmeal, cereal, and some amazing pancake mix which we dug into one morning. They also left us wine and some local brews. Thoughtful touch. All the beds were comfy and there were plenty of plush towels. There was even nice soap and shampoo in the bathrooms. Lots of nice decorative touches everywhere. Definitely one of the nicest Airbnb’s I’ve stayed at! The hosts: Jenn and Jim were super responsive before and during our stay. They sent us the house details in advance with tips for where to park, eat, shop etc. We contacted them once during our stay and Jim was upstairs within minutes to help us out. Otherwise, they let us have our privacy and feel like it was our home away from home. They...
