Jim’s place is great in so many ways and has all the important amenities one could need, even for a long stay. It’s within two blocks (small blocks)of Alberta street where a lot of bars, restaurants and coffee shops are located. It’s a cozy, comfortable basement space which is the “norm” when staying in Portland. Just a few steps down to the basement through a private entrance and you’re home. There’s a washer and dryer at the guests disposal and the coffee maker and coffee were a plus! Microwave and mini fridge were perfect for myself and my guest to hold our leftovers and beverages. The bed was perfectly comfy and there were lots of extra blankets, sheets and pillows and the couch folded out nicely in front of the tv. The bathroom/ shower was better than mine is at home and there was lots of closet space for clothing and storage. Street parking was never an issue and the neighborhood was quiet and quaint.
Above all and most appreciated, Jim was ever so helpful offering tips and suggestions throughout our trip and from start to finish he was more than accommodating. I had to adjust my reservation dates and check in and out times and each time, he was ever so kind with every interaction. Jim, THANK YOU!! Keep up the great work! I can only hope I can get to Portland again soon to be able to stay at your place again! Thanks again!
