I only stayed here for a day, but it was pretty nice to be in what looked to be a renovated space with a nice blend of old, new, and unique designs with a cool collection of books in the living room! Some pros and cons:
Pros:
- Overall cleanliness (save for some cobwebs in a lamp next to the living room couch)
- An extensive guide of the area is offered on the coffee table in the living room
- Hosts are very attentive to the small details of necessities needed by guests (ex: There was a rubber mat offered in the bathroom, which was nice! Plus a few masks and hand sanitizer were offered as well)
- Amazing location & quiet neighbourhood (except the night I stayed, but then again, it was the 4th of July, so I expected fireworks haha)
Cons:
- It’s kind of small and hard to find at first. Even after reading the instructions on how to get in, I ended up going to the wrong door before I finally found it.
- Be mindful on how to lock the door when you’re in the Airbnb! There’s a specific way to lock the sliding door’s handle, which wasn’t very obvious to me at first so I thought it had no lock before I finally figured it out haha
- The walls are kind of thin, and this Airbnb is right next to the other one that the hosts have, so expect to hear some noise from your neighbours..
- Communication wasn’t immediate from the hosts, so it took a little while to hear from them when I was trying to enter the correct Airbnb (though I will admit that it was my fault that I didn’t see the phone number to text outside of the Airbnb app)
Overall, I felt like it was a nice short stay for a day and would recommend it to anyone else looking for a short stay in this part of Portland!
