Steve and his family were welcoming from the very first communication we had with them. Their location is exceptional within SE Portland, with trivially close access to buses to downtown. It's also right next to the chillest streets for biking (Clinton, Lincoln, Salmon) this Chicagoan has ever had the very relaxed pleasure of using. The space for rent deserves actual applause at how perfectly it has been renovated. The space is very dark and quiet at night, and the yard and street outside is overgrown with gorgeous plants. We can't recommend Steve's place highly enough!
