We went on a 10-day road trip up the West Coast, starting from the SF Bay Area, driving all the way to Vancouver BC and back down. We stayed at Adam's house on our way back down, and it provided a much needed retreat from the hustle and bustle. The house is located on the Western edge of Portland, bordering Beaverton. It's very close to the center of the city, but the view from his backyard, and the serenity it provides makes it hard to believe you're only minutes away from downtown.
The house is very clean and spacious. The check-in process was a breeze, thanks to Adam's excellent communications.
Highly recommended if you're looking to visit Portland, while feeling like you're not in the middle of the city..
