Perfect stay in every way.

This VEBO was a solid 5 stars for me. It was very clean, the beds and living seating were comfortable, the kitchen was well appointed, and I loved the location! The owners were great and available if I needed anything, which I did not. The only downside is that it is not available for my next Portland stay.

Will always stay here visiting Portland

This experience at this property was first rate. The hosts were excellent, very communicative and all the materials and pictures surrounding the listing were accurate. The place is a two bedroom unit in the basement of a house the owners reside in and is impeccable. Nicely decorated and comfortable. Very convenient to downtown Portland and plenty of Grocery stores around as well. The community was really nice and walkable. If you are coming to Portland consider this place.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Osborne

Host profile image
Barbara grew up on the east coast, John grew up in Arizona. They relocated to the beautiful Pacific Northwest in 1994. After selling their historic 1907 house in the Piedmont neighborhood they decided ranch house living was for them and took on a complete remodel in the stunning Reedwood area of Portland. Barbara and John have two children, and can talk endlessly about Portland, area schools, real estate etc.

Why they chose this property

We choose this property because we loved the area. We were not looking for a house to renovate, but sometime you have to when the location is right!

What makes this property unique

Great location, quiet, yet close to coffee shops, food carts and nature areas. Officially is Portland's smallest neighborhood!
