Firstly, before renting this spot, you should know that there is an RV encampment across the street. While we never felt unsafe, it’s not listed on any of the other reviews. At the beginning of the month, there was just one RV and now there’s 2 plus 2 cars across the street from the house. Other than that, the location is pretty good - walking distance to a cafe and expensive hipster grocery store.
Victoria was extra responsive checking in about all sorts of things. The previous tenant that she had kept having packages delivered and I would have to arrange in my day to be home to bring the packages inside. In one instance, the previous tenant came to the house without permission and picked up the package without any of our knowledge. Which is inappropriate and creepy.
The garden is fenced and a good space if you have a dog. All in all it was fine but not worth the money and not as close to university of Portland as the description makes it out to be. By the time we were done with our month here I just wanted to be done with it.
