Erin's place is in a fantastic Portland neighborhood that felt safe, homey, and welcoming. In fact, it was my favorite Portland area along with Mississippi. Erin's place doesn't have air conditioning, and we were there during a hot week, so definitely keep that in mind. But the basement bedroom was plenty cool even on those days. And Erin has three fans in the place to help you stay cool. Huge tv, cute space, great communication.
