My husband and I loved staying with Shane! His dog, Maggie, was quite the co-hostess, ready to pour on love, excitement, and show off all her tricks. We didn't make use of the kitchen as the Alberta Arts district was full of great restaurants and bars. Shane gave us many-a suggestion for dining and activities with my 3 year old niece. The place itself was neat and comfortable with a great porch. When we're in Portland next, we plan to stay there again.
