Jill is the CONSUMMATE host. Her home, as described in the title, is a bungalow in that when you enter the gates, it's like an exotic, hidden gem. The house is gorgeous and designed with her unique touches that add to the "bungalow" motif. The room and bed are extremely comfy and Jill provides most anything you'd need in a bedroom. The bathroom, despite being shared, was always available for my use. Everything was spectacularly clean, organized, and regularly monitored.
The location is great. Portland is not a walking city so if you don't have a car, you can easily walk over to N Mississippi for entertainment which is lined with restaurants, bars, and shops. Other popular bars and restaurants are also within walking distance, but the real beauty of Portland is in its nature which is made more accessible with a car. I was in town for a work event and found the area to be incredibly walkable and easy to navigate. I'd recommend this location to anyone who's either comfortable walking, taking public transportation or using Uber during their stay. car just expands your options.
I'd highly recommend Jill's place for anyone who loves being taken care of. I never felt awkward asking for anything (especially because she outlined every detail of the house for me). I came and left as I pleased without any fear of waking Jill, which she made clear would not bother her. Overall, the experience was fun, easy, and warm. Such a great stay and can't wait to return!
