I can't say enough good things about the Blues, Brews, & Bicycle guesthouse -- I truly loved my stay! Taizz offers a beautiful, warm space to come home to after a day exploring the city. My bedroom was clean and comfortable, and the rest of the house was lovely and inviting. It's an older house with lots of character, but has all the right modern updates for convenience and comfort,.

As a host, Taizz went out of her way to make me feel welcome, and even accompanied me to a neighborhood bar/bottle shop on my first evening in town. I tend to keep to myself out of shyness, but Taizz was so easy to talk to, and full of interesting stories and information about Portland.

Taizz offered simple, healthy breakfast choices each morning, along with a-m-a-z-i-n-g, home-roasted, cold-brewed coffee, which I enjoyed in the beautiful garden. I only wish I had had more time to spend in the outside space! I also loved getting to know Leela the dog, who is a total sweetheart, and was a comfort to me as I was traveling away from my own pets.

Overall this was an ideal Airbnb experience -- comfortable, welcoming, and perfectly situated in a cute neighborhood, with access to all that Portland has to offer. Highly recommended!!
