The Hawthorne Guest House is a great place to stay in Portland. I spent a week there visiting family and I really enjoyed staying in a neighborhood, in walking distance to excellent spots for breakfast/coffee and other shops/dining. The Guest House is clean and well maintained with a very comfortable bed and a great shower. Its also located for easy trips downtown or to any of the other cool neighborhoods of Portland. I didn't miss not having a TV either, the stereo and diverse sampling of records was a nice touch!
