Jim and Robert’s place (Co-hosted by Ian) is a really nice, very comfortably appointed, and conveniently located option for Portland travelers. I stayed there by myself, but it’s perfect for a couple, maybe a small group of friends, a spot to our up parents while they’re in town... highly recommended. I didn’t actually get to meet my hosts in person, but got the impression (by way of super speedy responses to messages) that they and their co-host were readily available should I need any assistance. Full disclosure: I used to live in the neighborhood where their place is located so am already really comfortable and familiar with amenities in the neighborhood as well as accessing public transportation/car2go for other places I needed to get to. The neighborhood (while maybe not as colorful as say Alberta or Hawthorne) is an excellent option for anyone traveling on business who doesn’t want to stay downtown or folks who are in town for events at the Convention Center, Moda Center etc. Thank you Team Quiet Retreat! I’ll definitely be checking your availability next time I’m in town.
