We stayed at the house for 1-1/2 months prior to moving into our new home - 2 people and 2 small dogs. After reading some of the reviews, I admittedly was nervous, especially staying for a while. But the host(s) were quick to communicate and took care of any requests we made fairly quickly.
The house is a nice older/renovated classic bungalow in a fantastic neighborhood. Easy walking to grocery stores, restaurants and a convenient hop to the freeway.
Parking on the street is competitive, so the fact that this house has a driveway that can hold 3 cars was very convenient.
The complaints I read about ants was addressed by the use of Borax on the counters. Oregon has ants - there's no way to get around that. They left Borax to be placed on the counters and as soon as we did that, the ants disappeared.
There was a lack of drawers for putting your clothes away, which was a pain since we were there so long, but ample space for hanging clothes in a closet.
When we arrived, the backyard was full of leaves and downed branches, making it unusable for us or our dogs. At our request, they hired a local gardener to clean it up which was great. However, it revealed a muddy back yard and with all the rain was still unusable - no grass, just mud. We suggested maybe a wood chip or mulched back yard so make it usable.
Overall, our stay at the house was really good - it's a nice place to call home for any amount of time.
