Stayed at Erik’s for two nights in September. Erik is a great host with good communication beforehand. The place was really easy to find and is in a lovely neighbourhood, probably the best area of Portland between SE Hawthorne blvd and SE Division Street. There are plenty of great bars, cafes, restaurants just on the door step, about a 10minute walk away. The area is well served by Uber and downtown is about a 15 minute drive.
The apartment itself is of the highest quality and exceptionally clean. I absolutely loved the polished concrete floor and the kitchen is really well equipped (although we didn’t need to cook). Super comfy bed and a sofa bed if needed. Light and spacious. Oh, and an amazing shower.
Erik couldn’t do enough to help and knows the local area with some great recommendations.
Overall, if you’re coming to Portland, this is the place to stay!
