We really enjoyed our stay in this beautifully updated home in a great historic neighborhood- within easy walking distance of food carts/pods, restaurants/bars, and the departure location for a tour operator. Location cannot be beat! In addition, we were pleasantly surprised at the size (looked more compact in the pictures but it is very spacious). We would love the opportunity to stay again next time we’re in Portland.
Jennifer was a very thoughtful, accommodating, and responsive host. Any little issues we brought to her attention were greeted with a friendly willingness to address them immediately. The thoughtfully provided box fan was in the closet area of the bedroom and provided white noise that made sleeping easy (especially in that comfortable master bed!) Water pressure in the shower was strong, with plenty of hot water for at least 2 long back-to-back showers. We appreciated the filtered, cold water option from the fridge/freezer in the kitchen. We didn’t cook while there because of all the great food we wanted to try in the neighborhood. We also didn’t use the TV because we streamed movies on our tablet (the place has great Wi-Fi).
We did our best to take good care of this beautiful home- the kitchen is remodeled tastefully with granite countertops and a breakfast bar in addition to the large dining table and small kitchen table. We tried to always remove our shoes at the door, and were pleasantly surprised to find an umbrella available for our use, right outside our door.
The front porch has a great swing and a nice view of the mature tree-lined street. We enjoyed playing cards on the spacious porch bench one morning, which was the only time we saw our upstairs neighbors (who had rented out the second floor unit of the house).
We highly recommend this AirBnB for its location and comfort.
