Shera and Andrew were incredibly welcoming and kind hosts. They communicated quickly and clearly before and during my stay, and went above and beyond to make me feel at home and comfortable while I was with them.

I loved their house, which is gorgeous and a delight to stay in. My room was airy and light, with two big windows, a small writing desk, plenty of cupboard space and a place to put my case. The single bed was comfortable to sleep in. They kindly provided a lovely breakfast and I enjoyed talking to them about their lives, as well as the information and suggestions they gave about the area and Portland.

The house is a nice neighbourhood with a park just across the road where I went for a walk each morning, and there are places to eat, drink coffee and hang out close by, or you can be downtown within about 10-15 minutes drive/taxi/public transport. If (when?! I loved the city too!) I come back to Portland, I will definitely stay there again, and I hope to meet the hosts again in the future either way :-)
