If you are going to Portland, stay at Roy and Peggy’s place! It is in the Alberta Arts District, which is very cool part of town. We walked to dinner every evening and to breakfast in the mornings. It is also close to the airport and to the highway that leads out to Columbia Gorge and Multnomah Falls. It was clean, comfortable, spacious, and had so many nice touches, like the assorted fruit Roy left for us. It was perfect for our family.
The best part though were the hosts - Roy and Peggy. They were the best Airbnb hosts I’ve had. Both are really kind and gracious people - you’ll enjoy visiting with them, and you’ll want to return for a visit. I know we do!
