I stayed at Shane's place for three days while travelling to Portland for work and it was perfect. I didn't get a chance to meet Shane, but Jess helped out a great deal and was a great host. The house was extremely clean, and the room was better than expected. Everyone in the house was friendly, and provided a lot of amenities and help. I would certainly recommend staying at Shane's anytime you want to go to Portland. Also - the house is perfectly located just two blocks away from a slew of restaurants and bars, which made things a lot easier for this out of towner.
