Rather than booking a hotel, we decided to try an Airbnb for our first trip to Portland. If all hosts and homes are like Gwen and the 111 House, I see no reason to go back to booking hotels for future trips. To start, Gwen was more than accommodating, warm and welcoming, and such an ease to correspond with regarding any inquiries we had about our stay. Now to the home: We could not have asked for a better location and the home's interior is elegant, clean, modern, and cozy. From the personalized welcome note and gifts to the slew of comfy blankets and noise machines in the bedrooms, this home is above and beyond what we expected and we cannot wait to return on our next trip to Portland.
