Alan's home was a great place to spend our first night in the PNW after a very long day of traveling. It was the 4th of July and we had been up since 3am our time. Going on 18 hours of flying Chicago to Seattle, getting a rental car, doing some sightseeing in Portland, getting groceries, etc...we were exhausted and just needed to sleep. I texted Alan and even though he was enjoying his holiday, he got right back to me and gave us excellent directions. We were able to access his home with ease and we were so relieved! Our room was cozy, clean, and very comfortable. The bathroom was also clean and there were shampoos, lotions, soaps, clean towels, and plenty of space for our stuff. The landscape around his home was just gorgeous! The backyard is such a peaceful place to sit and relax.

Not far from the heart of downtown Portland, you will find a comfortable respite. Right down the road is a Starbucks, a Safeway grocery store, and the on ramp to I-5.

Alan has wonderful communication and was so gracious during every conversation we had. Sadly, we didn't get to meet him but I felt like I was talking to a friend. Don't pass up this Portland gem.
