A queen sized bed in the main bedroom sleeps two but there is also another queen sized sofa bed in another room along with all the bedding needed.

Great place to stay to explore the Portland area.

Great Portland Spot

Such a cool place! In a really cute and quiet part of Portland, but so close to downtown and the Oregon Zoo. The views were great from the shared deck, and was such a fun spot. Will try to stay again whenever we are in Portland. Host was very helpful throughout the process.

quiet neighborhood stay

This suite was the perfect size for my spouse and I for our overnight trip coming from Eugene OR. The location was very quiet and just up the hill from a charming Italian restaurant where we dined the night we stayed. The location has easy street parking (a bonus) and access to an amazing deck (via an elevator). Staying only one night (for a concert the next day) we didn't take advantage of the kitchen or dining area, but they are ample and well-stocked. We will definitely return to Vicki's place - great location close to downtown but in a very nice peaceful neighborhood.

Visiting family

The apartment is beautiful and the hostess is friendly and gracious. The deck was the best part. My sons, their partners, my friend and I had a beautiful evening visiting on the deck. The view is spectacular. We had everything we needed for a nice visit. Vicki had a great recommendation for a nearby restaurant for take out food.

Artistic oasis in Portland

Vicki’s home is a lovely place to stay in Portland. It is located in a gorgeous, quiet neighborhood that feels like a peaceful respite from the city. The home is well appointed with books, entertainment, towels, blankets, toiletries etc. & the view from the deck is picture perfect!

Beautiful property with spectacular views

This immaculate property is in a quiet and safe location. The view from the deck and rooms is spectacular. You feel like you're in a treehouse when you're on the deck. Books, games, and unique art pieces are throughout the rental. The elevator adds a fun touch as well. We met Vicki briefly and hope to visit again when we can stay longer.

Perfect location

Very happy with the property. The place was well kept and in good order fantastic host and an enjoyable stay. I do feel that the beds need new linens and the listing should indicate that the second bedroom is also the living room with a fold out futon. We found the linens necessary to make up the bed but they were old and dingy. Overall very happy with our stay peaceful nice neighborhood fantastic views interesting and fun place to stay.

Charmer with a view

We stayed 2 nights in this charmingly decorated historic home in the Portland Heights neighborhood. Was very comfortable, even the fold out couch. Had an opportunity to chat with Vicky; such a welcoming host. What sets this place apart is the view from the deck upstairs! Wow! On a clear day you get a perfect view of Mt Hood! At night, it’s mesmerizing. For the price … spectacular!!!

Lucky to have found such a unique little treasure

I found this spot when looking for a place for my wife and I to stay on our wedding night, and I chose it because it wasn't your typical ultra-modern, sterile feeling "luxury" nonsense. This place looked like it had character, and was super unique. I had no idea how right I was!It is simply beautiful, and FULL of life. You can tell this space was painstakingly created as a labor of love by the host (who we met in the morning and was an absolute delight), and has been loved by everyone who stays in it. From all the unique art throughout, to the whiteboard filled with message from previous guests, I've never stayed anywhere quite like this.I will *absolutely* be recommending this spot to friends who come into town from now on!

About the host

Hosted by Vicki deVille

Host profile image
I am a native Portlander and also a property developer/interior designer. I lived in Hawaii for 29 years but have come back to Portland to spend time with aging parents and grandchildren. I have traveled extensively, spending time in more than 80 countries and know what to expect in a fine hotel.

Why they chose this property

This home has a unique sense of character and the location is wonderful. It is an easy stroll to Downtown,, the Saturday Portland State farmers Market, NW 23rd Street and to the Pearl. A $5 taxi ride back up the hill makes it easy for those who don't want to walk back. There is also a bus stop right across the street.

What makes this property unique

This home was built in 1950 by Eric Ladd who re-used pieces of the historic Portland Hotel which was torn down that year and stood where Pioneer Place is now located. I purchased the White Stag Windows from the Rebuilding Center and added to Mr. Ladd's legacy by using them to define the suite you will be staying in.
