    Nothing major. The location is not in Portland downtown, so it requires to take the car to go to Portland downtown. The bathroom is shared with other guests, which was fine, and also part of the description, so no surprise there. This requires to be a little more flexible in terms of the timing because it might be occupied when one would actually need it.

    I really liked the bed and breakfast spirit. I liked to stay in a real American home. The breakfast was included, home made, copious and very good. We can meet other guests at the breakfast table.

    We had a room with the shared bathroom, and there was an initial hiccup with enough towels, but they fixed it immediacy!

    Location was fantastic, and the hosts were very kind and accommodating.

    Feels a bit more similar to a hostel than bnb. There is only 1 bathroom for 3 rooms so that was complicated when everyone needed it in the evening / morning. (weekend trip). There are adorable cats but they whine at night. Things could be updated, like sheets and pillows. They felt quite hard and old.

    Adorable exterior and cozy feel. Yummy French toast breakfast. Location is easy to get around with Uber/Lyft. Hosts are very nice.

    Location is away from most attractions but not a difficult 10-15 minute drive downtown.Some neighborhood noise. Expensive for a shared bathroom, but Portland does have many more expensive options. Dietary restrictions need to be confirmed, or be prepared to work around.

    Very clean. Easy on-street parking. Comfortable bed, good shower, easy-open new bedroom windows. Plentiful breakfast, especially enjoyed yummy banana bread.

    I think there was a little confusion over breakfast, but that's not a deal breaker. I'd told the hosts in advance that I can't eat dairy. but can eat eggs. My husband also told Jim on arrival that he doesn't eat eggs. Linda kindly got me some soya milk for my cereal. On the first morning (stayed 2 nights), my husband and son were given some lovely French toast with fresh berries for breakfast. I was given 2 pieces of bread and shown where the toaster was, which was fine, but there was no jam or anything for the bread, so I had a little cereal and dry toast. Next day, 2 plates of scrambled eggs (which I can eat) and beans were given to my husband ( who doesn't eat eggs) and my son, but nothing cooked at all was offered to me. There was some jam and bread on the dresser that morning. This is not a complaint at all, merely and observation and to say that if you have any food intolerances then maybe you need to be more detailed than I was about what you can eat, as I understand it is difficult for people to totally understand. The house was near a busy road so a little noisy at times during the night.

    The property was beautifully furnished and had a large, comfortable porch seating area around the outside with on street parking. Air con in the bedroom was very welcome. Hosts Linda and Jim were very charming and friendly. We had 2 double rooms, next to each other, as we travelled with our adult son, and had a separate bathroom for just the 3 of us, which worked well. Hosts Linda and Jim were on hand if needed but not obtrusive. Jim regaled us with a couple of stories which we enjoyed. As for the 2 cats mentioned on their website, we hardly saw them. I'd definitely recommend staying here. The bed was very comfortable for me. I have arthritis in one hip and usually have pain in the night. These 2 nights were the first two nights in months I actually slept pain free!! I should have asked what the mattress was.

    We stayed for four days and every day a different breakfast was prepared, all of them delicious! Nice house in a very safe and quiet location. in 2 min walk you can even take the bus for 1 $ to go downtown which was for us very convenient since parking is tremendously expensive in downtown Portland.

    Didn’t realize it would have so much road noise. Close to hospital so had ambulance and sirens a couple of times. Also loud noises from car engines which made it hard to go to sleep.

    Breakfast was delicious. Owners were very friendly and made us feel comfortable. Home was old, but appeared to be well maintained. Beautiful flowers and landscaping.

    The sheets, bedspread, and pillows did not look/smell clean, and I was unaware the bathroom was a shared communal bathroom for all rooms except one room with its own. Had I known, I would have pre-booked the one room with a private bathroom, but my friend would have had only access to a shared bathroom.

    Breakfast was OK, and the hosts were very accommodating.
