This is a great place. Very well thought-out and well-designed. Fuzzy blankets and throw pillows, eclectic art, nice furnishings...comfortable and cozy. Wonderful backyard! We had never stayed in this area of Portland before and loved it. What we enjoy most these days is eating and drinking our way through cities, especially meeting and talking to locals. Montavilla offers this in abundance. We had a hard time deciding where to go. Ya Hala was one of those picks and it was exceptionally good. But back to the accommodations, I highly recommend Eugene and Lenore's offering.
