We had a quick trip in Portland and the Hawthorne Cottage was the perfect place to stay. It's close to lots of great cafes, restaurants, and shops, and was a quick walk to the bus stop. The cottage itself looks just like in the pictures - very cozy and comfortable for three people to stay. Cynthia was very easy to work with and welcoming, and I appreciated how prompt she was to respond to my questions. Would definitely recommend!
