Wow, it's hard to know where to even start with this one. TL;DR: This place rules, Gabriella is awesome, and you should go visit.
Looking for a little more?
Firstly, Gabriella puts a lot of love and care into her home, and it definitely shines through. The accommodations are top notch through and through, and Gabriella is a great person to get to know.
If you haven't been to Portland, it's easy to think that a lot of the cool stuff (i.e. Voodoo Doughnuts, Dante's, and the food cart compound) is downtown, which is where you'd want to be. Those things are great, but once you're here, you quickly realize that a lot of the REALLY cool stuff is interspersed throughout residential areas.
That, in turn, makes this an awesome spot to stay since it's a quick walk to any of the neighbouring areas to take in what Portland has to offer. The transit system in Portland is great (also $5 for a day pass, highly recommended), which is good news since the house is extremely close to a few different bus stops and allows you to get around the city with ease.
If you'd like to end up downtown, no sweat - it's just about as easy to get there as anywhere else either by bike, transit (have I mentioned that it's great?), ride-share/cab, or old-fashioned walking.
I'm sure you've gathered by now, but I had a great stay, and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to visit Portland!
