Kristen is a great hostess, I would reccomend this to someone who is need of a place to stay in Portland. It is about a half mile from the red line off of the 7th Avenue exit. Quick walk or even quicker Lyft/Uber ride. Very quick to respond to your email and is respectful of your privacy. Would definitely consider staying there again. The only downside is that you can hear people walking upstairs which isn't that big of an issue for me.
