Our bedroom, bathroom and private patio were great. The bed is super comfortable and the bathroom has two great shower heads and the most amazing toilet (see previous reviews for details). However, the rest of the house reminded me of a frat house. It was pretty messy and I probably wouldn't have wanted to cook any meals in the kitchen. My boyfriend and I were looking for a place to sleep and shower at which is exactly what we used this place for. For the price, you can't beat it. However, if it had been raining during our stay and we were looking for a place to hang out/relax in, I probably wouldn't have loved it. It doesn't have much of a TV or lounge area.. but you're probably visiting Portland so you shouldn't be watching TV anyway :) Overall, the place was great and Evan is a very nice host.
