Erik's place was in a great location. We loved the Alberta Arts District which was only a couple of miles away. The house itself was very cozy and had nice furnishings. The kitchen was well equipped for most cooking functions. If you are looking to bake you may have to invest in additional ingredients/pans depending on how specific your project is, but this would be expected in most Airbnbs in my opinion. The yard was great for our dog and it had a lovely garden feel. We stayed during summer months and the central AC was great and kept us very cool.
We had a couple of small issues (we had trouble with the oven), Erik was quick to respond and provide solutions.
We would recommend staying in Erik's place the next time you are in Portland.
