Melanie's place was wonderful: comfortable, clean, nicely appointed, in a lovely area. The house is a short walk from the convention center (which is what brought me to Portland most recently) and a short walk, in the other direction, from plenty of good restaurants+bar spots. Melanie was always super responsive. Check-in and check-out were seamless. The accommodations felt very private. Absolutely nothing to complain about. I'd gladly choose Melanie's place again for future trips.
