This place is in the heart of Hawthorne. Walkable to cafes, cool thrift shops, Powell’s Books and a really nice hat shop. The bed was comfy, the kitchen has everything and the view was great. It’s steps away from the bus stop.I’ll be back.

Great spot near a bunch of restaurants! Air conditioning worked great. And the unit is above a garage so there is no noise ever coming in. The only thing I would suggest is bringing a sleep mask since there is a lot of natural light coming in and no curtains to block it. Would recommend and come back.

Such a lovely little gem near the center of town. The perfect fit for myself and two kids while on vacation. I appreciated the off street parking, and because we needed to do a lot of cooking, it had mostly what we needed to cook, and they offered to let us borrow anything from the main house that we might need. The hosts were very gracious and friendly. My only comment would be that there was a bit of a sugar ant issue that wasn't disclosed, so just make sure to keep all your food closed up. Would highly recommend and stay again in the future!
