Location, location, location. We've been to Portland many times and gosh do we love this neighborhood. Cora's place is a great value. The building is old and creaky, but it recalls the era of wooden wainscotting and tile finishes. The furniture isn't old, the bed wonderfully comfortable, and everything was easy and close by. (Including restaurants, a movie, Whole Foods, and some teriffic food trucks - all within a few blocks. Self check-in was a breeze. Cora was very responsive. Highly recommend.
