Staying with Hilary was wonderful! It was my first time traveling to Portland, and I made the journey alone. She made me feel very welcome and comfortable. She gave great recommendations of things to do in and around Portland. She was open to talking if I wanted to and to letting me do my own thing if I preferred that. My room had everything I needed, plus extra things like a white noise machine and electric blanket which kept me super comfy while sleeping. She also had tea and espresso in the kitchen, which made me happy. Her two dogs are the cutest, sweetest lil beings! Staying with her was definitely one of my best choices in planning my Portland adventure.
