TL:DNR: Excellent experience. Great hosts. Fantastic location.Due to having a dog, we typically opt for short-term rentals when we travel. 90% of the time, you get a "house by Ikea": nothing potentially offensive, but also nothing that makes you pay much attention to the house itself. 9% of the time, you get a house with a touch of evidence of human inhabitance. This house is one of the 1%. SO COOL. It has soul. We really enjoyed staying in a place that complemented the city and neighborhood we were in. It regularly caused our eye to linger when navigating a room.Hosts were super responsive and pleasant to work with.The location is fantastic. We've been to Portland a ton over the years, but have never spent any time in the Boise neighborhood. If you're a foodie... stay here. It's one block from the dead center of Mississippi Avenue. We ate Cuban, Norwegian, Burmese, authentic Mexican, and a damn fine, straight-up pizza. All within 3 blocks MAX of the front door.Sounds like we were their first rental and there were a few rough edges - just the last items on a picklist and its pretty clear that a host that cares this much about their property will take care of those lovingly.Highly recommend.
