"Host very friendly and helpful. Location pleasant and quiet. Short walk to view of ocean, short drive to beaches and downtown Portland. Host has generously provided chilled water and ingredients for breakfast. If you're someone who prefers a clean, simple decor, you will not find it here. Compared with posted photos, there are lots of items on nearly every surface. If you are a fan of maximalist decor, this may be to your taste."
