Steve's place was perfect for our stay in Portland while attending the Waterfront Blues Festival. Just a short walk to the bus line to head downtown and a short Lyft ride home. We weren't at his studio much, except to sleep and eat breakfast, but it was exactly what we needed after a long day in the sun listening to music. Walking distance from Steve's studio, you have New Season's Grocery Story, Corcordia Ale House, McMenamins Kennedy School, gas station, liquor store and pretty much anything you would need. It is in the Alberta Arts area and very close to N. Mississippi area, which are both being reborned and "the" place to be and live. I would recommend Steve's Attic Studio to anyone looking to be close to downtown, but wants to enjoy the quietness of a friendly neighborhood as well.
