My goodness, how do I describe Gina and her place? It was beyond amazing! She is the nicest person I have ever stayed with and has so many recommendations for things to do within just walking distance. Which I will say is totally worth it. This neighborhood is a hidden gem and if you like local Portland stuff then you came to the right place. There are bars, restaurants, coffee shops, cute cafes and boutique shops literally just down the street. I didn't try public transit but it is all so close by as well and Gina even has maps for different buses, a list of things to do, newspapers and magazines about Portland and just so much to offer! She is wonderful like I said and her dog London is absolutely gorgeous and super smart/friendly!! I want him lol. The house is always super clean and has a very soothing feeling to it. It is a very cozy place and you just feel like you live here when you stay with Gina. I hung out in the living room and played with her pup London for a good while and even got some work done on my computer because I really just felt like I was at home! I know this is a long post but if you can book this place, just do it! You will be so amazed!
