My husband and I were visiting Portland for the first time on vacation. Cora's place was exactly what we were looking for, super cute and cozy, and a nice size for the 2 of us. Everything was super clean and accommodations were great (blow dryer, shampoo, conditioner, space-heater for cold evenings). The bed was very comfy and there were lots of blankets.
It was very close to some cool restaurants, shops, and bars. There is even a Whole Foods super close-by. We used Uber/Lyft for our entire trip and most of our planned destinations were for a super low fare to and from the apartment. It's in a very good location.
We had no problem with the noise. We would hear the upstairs neighbors closing the door when they left? But it was far from disruptive. Ever since becoming a mom I am a super light sleeper, and I had zero sleeping issues.
Cora was sweet and helpful from the start. She responds quickly and is very clear and detailed. Check-in/out was smooth and easy.
When we come back to Portland we will definitely look into booking with Cora again:)
