Not exaggerating at all with the "Heart of Hawthorne" tagline. Right in the center of where everything worth going to on Hawthorne is. If you have two legs, getting to bars, shops, food carts, and all the other Hawthorne attractions can all be done without looking for parking! (Note: I don't — so I drove most places and still had no problem parking.) 😉
The unit is exactly as pictured: Very small but pleasantly appointed. We were really only looking for a place to sleep and shower as we had full days planned running around Portland, and it delivered on that. One thing to note is that—if you're anything like me—you'll be living out of your suitcase while here. There is a small closet with hangers for clothes that don't like to be folded, but there is no true "dresser" to speak of. Certainly not a downside; just something to note.
Overall, perfect accommodations for a trip that is more about being out-and-about than lounging around in the unit itself. Price and location cannot be beat.
