This was my first Airbnb experience and it couldn't have been better. Tom is a wonderful host and has a wealth of knowledge about Portland. I greatly appreciated his advice about where to visit in and around the area. It is clear that he is excited about where he lives! Tom's home is in a great neighborhood with many shops and restaurants in walking distance. Public transportation is nearby and is super easy to use if you want to venture farther into the city.
The room that I stayed in was large, clean and comfortable. It's not often that one gets to say that even the pillows and towels are great! There is a small table that was very handy in addition to small tables on each side of the bed. There was also a large closet. This room is next to another room that is also rented. The two rooms share a common area that has a great couch for relaxing.
Overall, I felt very comfortable here and will definitely look into staying here again when I return to Portland.
