We had a great stay in Portland at Gabe's place! The check-in process is so simple due to access to the lock-box. Gabe even allowed us to drop off our bags earlier than the check-in time so we wouldn't have to carry our luggage around.
The space itself is clean and spacious. We each had our own rooms. The bathroom is a good size with lots of space and shelving to place your toiletries. The shower pressure and water temperature were also spot on. The only thing we noticed is that if we closed the bathroom door all the way, we'd have trouble opening it back up because of the faulty knob/door handle. We "fixed" this problem by taking the laundry detergent box from the laundry room and using it as a door blocker/stopper of sorts - problem solved.
The kitchen is fully stocked and there are even spices and cooking oil available (not all airbnb listings have this).
We loved the little balcony we had access to. Sitting out there on a warm summer night and people-watching was great.
One minor thing: we wish there were mirrors in all the bedrooms so that we wouldn't have to rely on the one bathroom mirror to get ready. There is a hallway mirror, but it is hung really high up so it wasn't much use to us.
Lastly, the location is fantastic! 23rd Ave is just up the street and around the corner so you will be close to shopping and restaurants. We walked into Downtown and it took us about 15 min. The MAX line station closest to the apartment is the Providence Park stop on the red line. We were able to go to the airport and back with no problem.
All in all, we had a great stay at Gabe's and we highly recommend the place!
