This awesome little basement apt was a great stay for my family and I on spring break. Our host made was responsive to requests through our entire stay, gave us extra consideration with our rambunctious little ones and helped us settle in nicely. It has a great kitchen set up, and a nice open-space concept so the place felt roomy. We were welcomed to use the open patio space, but springtime in PNW called us outside more. The only thing I would highlight more is that public transportation and a Target is nearby! Those came in clutch for the family. You won’t be disappointed with this stay!

About the host

Hosted by Natalia Bortolotti

Host profile image
I'm originally from the San Francisco Bay Area and have spent the last thirteen years in Los Angeles. I love creative cities, so I'm thrilled to be living in the Montavilla neighborhood of Portland. My passions are art, music, film, design and connecting with other creatives. I love introducing my friends and guests to this cool city and especially my 'hood!

This property is new for me, so this VRBO account is new, but I have experience hosting short and longer term renters and I love to help create a great spaces and host people for there home-away-from home.

Why they chose this property

Montavilla has a great friendly neighborhood vibe. It feels like a town within a city and everything you need is within walking distance. Though I enjoy exploring neighborhoods all over the city, I find that all my needs are met by its top-notch restaurants, charming locally-owned boutiques, and bustling cafe's.

What makes this property unique

It's super cozy despite its large size. The radiant heat keeps it toasty warm in the Winter and its location, coupled with the stained concrete floors, keep it refreshingly cool in the Summer. I also love that it's in an ideal location, less than a mile from wonderful downtown Montavilla.
