I love my account, it has the city life aspect, but without the busy aspect, so you can get a good night sleep.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you are enjoying your time at Portland Green Student Village! We pride ourselves on our location being central but also being private for students and having our own community space and feel. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the site team.
The accommodation is very close to campus making it easy to get to university.

Thank you for your review! We are pleased our location is ideal for you and it is only just a short walk to University! We will be sure to pass your comments on to the site team.
When I moved in my room was clean but the kitchen was unacceptable me and my flatmates along with couple of our parents had to clean the kitchen ourselves. Issues in my room that should have been fixed weeks ago are still pending such as my indoor lock not working. Regardless, it’s a decent size and good facilities overall however I’m paying a lot more than a lot of people who have the same exact room which is entirely unfair.

Thanks for your review! We're really sorry to hear that you felt this way upon moving in with us. We're very sorry to hear about your concerns with pending issues; if this is still the caseplease mention this at Reception and they will do everything they can to sort the issue. We are happy to hear you like our facilities, any queries on rent and concerns surrounding this please again speak to reception and they will be happy to assist you.

Our onsite team are always there to support and help you during your stay and we are pleased you agree what a credit they are. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the site team.
My mattress was uncomfortable and smelt of urine on move in day. My bathroom had to be fully bleached as it smelt of urine, and my carpet is covered in mysterious brown stains. In the kitchen, one of the fridges doesn't work, the oven doesn't work, and we don't have a bin. There was a banging noise from the bathroom every 10 seconds and my bathroom leaks through the floor, onto the carpets. The main issue I have is with the maintenance report issues. I have been living here for 2 weeks now and still, my bathroom still leaks constantly, we only have one fridge between 6 of us, the oven took about a week for someone to fix, and I was made to be an idiot for reporting the banging noise as I was told that it'll just 'go by itself over time', when actually the it required a new flush valve (a week after reported). I have reported all issues numerous times, and get told false promises about when it'll be fixed, when actually they never reported it! I could share much more too if I had space
It was good, unfortunately some things happened what made the experience not as good

Thank you for your review of PGSV! We are sorry to hear your whole experience wasn't as good as hoped due to things happening and would like to hear from you to discuss these issues further to see what we could do, please email pgsv@abodusstudents.com. We will be sure to pass your comments and feedback onto the site team!
Is fantastic value for money, the rooms are pleasant with good storage under the bed, a large desk, and a wired internet connection. The bathrooms are decently sized with a nice shower. I've sometimes had to wait a while for small maintenance issues to be resolved but anything critical is sorted as soon as possible. The hallways and corridors are a little dirty sometimes with insects living near the external doors, but I've really only had that in one of the buildings. The £5.10 per wash & dry is kinda pricey but the rent price makes up for it I suppose. Otherwise, the staff on the desk are absolutely lovely and resolve any issues I've had to the best of their ability, and the parcel collection service has been extremely useful! The accomodation is also located really close to everyuthing so I've just been walking everywhere. Only about 5 mins to Northumbria and 10-15 to Newcastle. Oh! and the internet is quite fast at a steady 25 megabytes per second so definitely no complaints there.

Hi, thank you for your lovely feedback and comments about PGSV! We are glad you loved our facilities on offer as well as your living experience along with recognising how lovely our staff are onsite. We will be sure to pass all your comments and feedback onto the team!

It’s a nice accommodation with en-suite rooms / studios, close to both universities, right next to Ouseburn, they have a lot of great VIP discounts and giveaways for residents. The cash back scheme is very good if you book quite early. However, there have been multiple occasions where the bin store is overflowing, to the point it is no longer accessible. I also had a very bad experience with a much older flatmate who caused a lot of problems for me and the others. This was ongoing and only got a bit better when we repeatedly said something to reception about it. Sometimes the main entrance to Newton Court opens without needing to use the keycard, so anyone could get into the courtyard. However, the door to each block and then your flat & room are securely locked.

Been at Portland for 2 years and for the most it was really good all went off without any issues and staff couldn’t be more helpful however the doors into the buildings and gates regularly break which would be alright if they got fixed as regularly but they don’t. However the 24/7 security means this isn’t a massive issue and quite handy if you forget a key but still annoying seeing as it is still quite expensive

Maintenance respond quickly and students get a lot of privacy. They do giveaways and offer discounts on things. The area is nice but it is slightly further from the uni than other accommodations but the distance isn’t too bad. Main issues were the fire alarm was constantly going off, we had no hot water for a few weeks, laundry is quite expensive, bins piled up often and my room hadn’t been cleaned before I moved in and it was very dirty.

Portland green is a great accomodation for first years, the rooms are a lot nicer than most other places and they aren't expensive. The only downsides are that it gets pretty noisy during the night and also the 20 minute walk to most university buildings.

Good room & flat. Room is well sized and flows well and not once did I feel cramped or uncomfortable. Flat kitchen had all appliances( which worked) and any problem with anything maintenance was always on hand to repair/ fix anything within 24hrs. Reception was always pleasant & weren’t too strict

Great accomodation, flat came with a dishwasher too which was a lifesaver, comfy sofas and very close to good places such as Ouseburn and Jesmond, and a 20/30 min walk to Newcastle Shopping Park for a shop at Asda, B&M etc. Most issues were resolved in a good time frame and I loved staying here

Half an hour from newcastle uni which is a trek compared other accomidations, rooms are pretty small and flats weren't very clean when we moved in. Takes ages to get stuff replaced, or not at all. In our last few weeks we've had no hot water at all and no apology from staff.

Reception staff are great and keen to help. Security was not the best, as most of the year the main entrance door to my building was wide open and fob access to each block was switched off, so any random person could walk up straight to any flat door without any keys. My building did not come with a few things like a dishwasher and TV, which wouldn’t have been an issue, however the other buildings did get a TV and dishwasher were paying the same price as me. There was no recycling available and sometimes the bin room would get full and rubbish would pile outside for days which attracted rats to the premises. Circuit laundry was too expensive to depend on every week, other accommodations set their prices to half of what I have been charged per wash during my stay. The lift was out of service for more than 2 months and I had to contact my university involved to fix it. No hot water in my entire building during the last week of my stay, and took them 10 days to fix.

Nice place to live and a good location although quite far from some uni buildings, particularly the Newcastle Medical school (~25 minute walk). Rooms were nice and spacious, as well as the living and kitchen areas. Only issue was with maintenance - some requests were not addressed at all. Social spaces were great, and there are always lots of free things and giveaways in reception.

Being a student village, this accommodation offers many opportunities to meet new people. The buildings are also quite modern and the facilities available, such as the gym and study spaces, make up for the location of the accommodation as it is a bit further out of the university campus. There were a few issues with appliances e.g. I often had to report of the oven not working, but they were always resolved. All in all, I had a good experience living in Portland Green.

I had a great time staying here for my first year of university, and would recommend to anyone!! There is a large array of facilities and staff are very helpful. It is a bit of a walk to Newcastle University, but you get used to it.

staffs are lovely, the rooms are spacious for the price, and the premise is of good surrounds of bars, shops and even a pharmacy. Just minor issues like the kitchen utilities especially the hob would take too long to heat up, heater would turn on max for only 2 hrs and sometimes maintenance of facilities like entrance doors and lifts would take longer than expected. Other than that, PGSV is of good value for money and the experience has been good so far.

I’ve loved Portland, initially I was concerned about the walk to uni / not having heard of the accommodation before. But the walk is a good start to my day & I wouldn’t change living here!

I am pleased with my accomodation. I like that it is a bit further from uni as it gets more quiet at times. There are also enough shops close by. The only thing I have to criticise is the maintanance sometimes. It takes a while to fix a problem like a broken oven or a missing microwave (both from experience), other than that the staff are very lovely and always try to help out.

A great accommodation with super helpful and friendly staff. Portland Green is a safe and warm place to live with the reassurance of 24/7 security. A great location for both Northumbria University and Newcastle University and is only a short distance from the city centre so perfect for shopping and a night out. With all bills included in the price and ensuite rooms you really can't go wrong and I have rebooked for next year!

The staff are very friendly and always keen to help, the flat kitchens are large enough spaces with enough room and amenities to socialise in large groups. The bedrooms are spacious with comfortable decor and suitable en suits.

Portland Green is such good value for money! If this accommodation was in the city centre it would definitely be at least £20 per week more, but the walk has never been a problem- only ten minutes to the city centre. The staff are super friendly and the rooms are really spacious, especially for the price. Sometimes things don't get fixed very quickly, such as our lifts and outside doors, but I would definitely recommend Portland Green to anyone coming to uni in Newcastle.

I am satisfied with my stay in PGSV as it has good value for money, the only thing I would suggest is that all flats have vacuums, irons and brooms/ dustpans/ mops as my flat was missing two of these things.

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
It is a great clean accommodation with large kitchen space and nice rooms. Only problem is it is hard to socialise as the only social space to meet people is in another building. Showers also easily block but it is easy to fix.

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Really pleased with the accommodation! By far the nicest out of any other accommodations in Newcastle. Also found that even though it’s a large accommodation that the social side has been great too. Thoroughly recommend

Very nice staff, goof value for money

Portland green is a very nice student accommodation, that’s very lively and has lots of great events going on. The rooms are very spacious and worth the money we pay. The kitchens are really nice and a great social space for me and my flat. I would definitely recommend it to other students.

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Portland green is a lively student village that allows us to meet new people all the time, it’s in a very convenient location and the flat itself is spacious and designed very well in my opinion.

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Portland Green has been everything I could possibly want from a student accommodation! The rooms and the kitchen area are spacious and modern, especially considering the low price in comparison to lots of other Newcastle accommodation, and the staff are always so friendly and remember all of our faces, which just adds to the community atmosphere. I was worried that the location would be quite distant from the city centre, but it's such a nice walk that I hardly even notice it, and being near arty Ouseburn and all the lovely forest parks more than makes up for the fifteen minute walk to uni. I've absolutely loved my time here so far- I've already rebooked the same room for next year!

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Nice place, good value for money especially for having an en suite. Not the closest to the Uni but it’s still good. Not the most social but you’ll make your own friends anyway.

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Nice accommodation, very friendly and helpful staff, not as social as i thought and not as close to Newcastle University. Overall its a good place to live though!

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Great accommodation for the price, fast wifi and various amount of facilities.

Thank you so much for your detailed and 5-star review! We will be sure to feedback your comments to the PGSV team.
September to December - the front door broken and had bin collection issues for many weeks causing there to be many rats January till present - the lift is broken and there is hole in the wall and doesn’t look very welcoming.

Very nice and spacious rooms. Nice social place. Friendly staff.

Thank you very much for your detailed review and feedback. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
For a £128 ppw en-suite there’s nothing you can really complain about. I’ve found the study rooms in Bryson Court to be quite handy for when I want to study out of my room but not walk over to the library. The staff at the reception I’ve found are always very friendly.

Thank you very much for your detailed review and helpful feedback, and for choosing to stay with us at PGSV! We are very happy to have you here with us, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
I enjoy living here, the rooms and flat itself is great, the main issue is the location is a bit further out from town and parts of the university.

Hello, and thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear you aren't fully satisfied with your experience at PGSV and we will be sure to pass your feedback onto the team!
East to meet new people. Staff are welcoming.

Hello, and thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear you aren't fully satisfied with your experience at PGSV. We will be sure to pass your feedback onto the team!
Really outstanding in most aspects, clean, very nice area but you do have to sacrifice in the location as it is further from town and might be overpriced compared to uni catered ones but still good price if considering all the pros you're paying for.

Thank you very much for your detailed review and feedback. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Buildings are nice, modern, and well maintained, student Village is a bit out of the way

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
I am really enjoying my time at PGSV. It is good value for money and always clean. However it is a bit out of the city centre.

Thank you very much for your review. We are very happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay a PGSV, and we are happy to have you here with us! We will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
I am living in Turner Court in Portland Green Student Village, which is unfortunate given that all the buildings in the village have different amenities for the same price. We don't have a social space, TV, dishwasher, staffed entrance or gym, where other buildings do. Maintenance requests are fundamentally ignored, and the staff don't seem to know how to sort this.

Great place to stay with university and city-centre close by. Bedroom and en-suite is a comfortable size and is a great place to get to know other students and enjoy the university experience!

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the site team!
Maintenance manager Sue is super helpful and friendly and always fix’s any issue as soon as the happen All reception staff are so friendly and reliable they’re always willing to help couldn’t fault any of them

Thank you very much for your detailed review and feedback. We are happy to hear you've enjoyed your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Lived here for 4 years. The rooms are more spacious than you can find at the same price. The team is super friendly and helpful. Location is close to Uni and the tesco and subway made life easier. Lots of events organised by the team or students so social life is fun, would recommend getting a place with friends. The place can get noisy sometimes especially on weekends. Place is clean and in the 4 years wifi never failed me, always super fast. Overall would highly recommend it it's a great accommodation.

Thank you very much for your detailed review and feedback. We are happy to hear you've enjoyed your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
Really friendly and helpful staff all around for a good price

Thank you very much for your review!
I’ve lived here for two years and the staff are really lovely, the buildings are pretty good with decent rooms for the price you’re paying. The only problem is it’s quite far from Newcastle campus especially the medical building

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure to pass your comments on to the property team!
I have really enjoyed my time staying here for my second year . Clean , helpful , amazing maintenance staff ! Couldn’t ask for more . Amazing deals to the point I’ve rebooked the same room for my final year . Couldn’t recommend anywhere better !

I have lived in this student accommodation since September 2021 and have rebooked for my last year at Newcastle University for 22/23. The flats are en suites and I share a kitchen with my other flatmates. When booking I was able to give my preferences and they were met, such as whether being in a flat with girls or mixed and also I specified being with 2nd year students . There are entertainments held on a monthly basis, which we are invited to and a social area where we can book for gatherings. The best day is Friday when I get to see George the Portland Green Students Village dog. The staff are great and deal with situations promptly.

Thank you very much for your detailed review and helpful feedback. We are so happy you have chosen PGSV as your home from home, and we are thrilled to have you as part of the Abodus family! (P.S. We also love George! :))
I’m staying here for my second year at Sunderland University and I have already booked for next year. I’ve met so many friends. There are 5 buildings in the village with students from Newcastle/Northumbria Uni. The village has its own Tesco Express and Subway. There’s a pharmacy and GP across the road and loads of bars nearby. The staff are great and have events almost every week. Walk to town takes about 10 minutes and about 5-8 minutes to the nearest Metro or you can use an e-scooter to get there. Newton Court is the newest of the buildings and has huge kitchen and lounge.

Honestly the best accommodation I have ever lived in! I have lived at Portland green for 2 years now and I wouldn’t stay anywhere else now! George (the office dog) is a great addition to a Friday daytime and makes my day when I go by reception! If I ever have any issues the reception team take note of it and they are resolved very quickly! I am looking to do a masters next year and I am hoping that I can stay in Newcastle to stay here for another year! Great location for university and getting into the city centre and events on site are fantastic especially the bingo nights which are great fun!

Thank you so much for your detailed and 5-star review! We will be sure to feedback your comments to the PGSV team.
Felt really safe and secure friendly staff stayed for 2 years and was really good!

Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We will be sure to pass your feedback to the PGSV team.
I have lived at Portland Green Student Village for 7 months now and I can honestly say that I would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for student accommodation in Newcastle. Within my first month of living at Portland Green I did have a few issues with my neighbours however the reception team were fantastic and completely understanding to my situation and sorted these issues for me straight away. Now I am extremely happy and have made life long friends from around the village and am now looking forward to another year at Portland Green.

Thank you so much for your detailed review which shares your experience of living at PGSV. We will be sure to pass your feedback onto the team.
In general terms everything is ok. I only have two negative things to say about the accommodation. 1. I feel it is quite expensive, in my case I finish my classes at the beginning of May and I have had to pay two more moths for nothing (980 pounds). I am so angry about this, find it very unfair. 2. When we have had issues with flat mates it is hard or even impossible to change somewhere else (having spare rooms in every building), it is something it should change. We pay a lot of money for so little solutions.

Hello, and thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear you aren't fully satisfied with your experience at PGSV. When booking with us, every Abodus resident receives a contract with their chosen length of stay. It is the responsibility of the resident to carefully read their contract before signing it. If you have any other questions or concerns, we encourage you to speak directly with the property team so they can address them with you.
Definitely not worth the money we pay given the quality of the accommodation in comparison to other university halls which charge the same amount. Social life is good but dependent on the people you are living with rather than the accommodation itself.

Hello, and thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you are unhappy with your time at PGSV. We encourage you to reach out to the site team to discuss your concerns in more detail so that we can work with you to come to a resolution.
For the money I'm paying in comparison to other accommodations I've seen, I'm annoyed, little justifies the cost I'm paying especially since certain promised benefits have not been included

Thank you very much for your review. We encourage you to please reach out to the reception team to express your concerns so that we can address and work towards resolving any issues you are facing.
It's a good place to live where you can meet new people from a range of backgrounds doing multiple courses. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. There are regular competitions and giveaways, e.g. Pepsi max and mugs. Only downside is the walls are pretty thin so I am able to hear my flatmates and other flats talking and singing etc, which is usually fine during the day but can be quite annoying on a night when trying to sleep.

Many thanks for your review and feedback. If ever you need to make a noise complaint, please speak with your reception team who will be happy to discuss the noise levels with you. We hope you enjoy the remainder of your time at PGSV!
I've stayed at Portland Green Student Village since 2018 and during this time I haven't had much problems. If there's one thing that I think is great about this place it has to be the staff. The staff here are fantastic, very friendly and welcoming they really do try thier best to make you feel accommodated. I would definitely recommend this place especially if you are a young or mature student. The location is great too, it's right next to Ouseburn a short walk from the city centre and a stones through away from jesmond. Overall 8.5/10

Thank you very much for your kind review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time at PGSV, and we will be sure the site team receive your comments!
Accommodation is nice because it has open spaces such as common areas around the building as well as a common space within our flats. I also like that the rooms allow for privacy. Reception is lovely!

Thank you very much for your review and helpful feedback. We are so happy to hear you are enjoying your accommodation!
Love having my own bathroom and own bedroom. I love the people at reception, always willing to help. Very nice location and accessible to the metro

Thanks so much for your review!
I love the set up of the rooms and the social areas are a 10/10. My shower drain was clogged when I arrived, but it was quickly fixed :D

Many thanks for your review and helpful feedback. We are happy to hear you are enjoying your time with Abodus, and that your maintenance request was quickly resolved!
Nice location and environment. Not too crowded and the buildings are right next to a park. Cons are noise from parties and some staff are lazy.

Thank you very much for your review!
Cozy environment with friendly employees and also brilliant social space outlined with so much activities.

Thank you very much for your review!
Great safe and friendly environment to learn socialise and grow. Brilliant facilities and lovely staff that are always there to help. Quality wifi and Close to university so that’s always a bonus!

Thanks so much for your kind comments and wonderful feedback! We will be sure to pass them on to the PGSV team.
Very good location with many other student accommodations nearby. Any maintenance issues resolved quickly. Very social.

Thank you very much for your review!
WiFi is the biggest issue I’ve had since being here. However the value for money that you get for the rooms and amenities makes it more than worth it. The smoking areas and courtyards make it very easy to be social and get to know other people in the building.

Thanks so much for your review and helpful feedback! We are sorry to hear about your issues with the WiFi, but we are happy to announce that we have partnered with Ask4 to offer you a free upgrade to 4Network, and we are consistently looking to make further improvements to our services to you. We are happy to hear that you are otherwise happy with your accommodation, and we look forward to spending this year with you!

Thank you so much for your review!
Even though at fist, I was quite sceptical about living at Turner Court in Portland Green, I have grown to love living there. I love living here so much that I am going to live in Portland Green at Newton Court next academic year! There wasn't much social-wise due to COVID-19 but Turner Court has still been a very social place for me. I've met loads of new people.

The accommodation is really nice and modern with a good flat layout. The rooms were fairly clean when I moved in. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The location is really good and close to both unis. The social experience has been difficult due to the current situations however meeting new flatmates was great. The WiFi is really fast and you can have up to 5 devices on it.

Newcastle is a long way from London and I expected it would take a decent amount of time to get used to being so far away from home. While I can't lie and say I'm completely used to it yet, settling in and living at the Portland Green Student Village has been a great experience. The staff are friendly and reply quickly to enquiries, whether you email or ask them in person, there are constantly events going on despite the current situation in England; it is clear that the staff and organisers are making sure that we're having the best experience that we can even with everything going on right now. While I will certainly miss being home in London, I am also looking forward to spending the rest of the year here in my first year of higher education.

Thank you so much for your great review! It is excellent to hear that we have helped to make your transition to university as seamless as possible, even in the current climate. We hope that you continue to enjoy your time at PGSV!

Thank you for your review! We're so glad you're enjoying your time at PGSV!
Really nice flat, and the staff have tried to put on online events to make coronavirus a bit less anti social

Thanks so much for your review. We're happy to hear that you're enjoying both your flat and the online events!

Hi, thanks for your feedback. It's always helpful to hear what our residents think. We will pass your comments on to the team at PGSV!
I don’t think you’ll find much better for your money in newcastle, especially with the cashback. Big desk and bed, decent floor space, even got a dishwasher in the kitchen!! All basic necessities covered like Hoover, kettle, microwave, toaster. The staff are really friendly as well, I was feeling upset one day with isolation and Elaine just made me feel so much better. Obviously with lockdown it’s hard to judge the social spaces and social experience, but I’m enjoying myself so far. It is 10 mins walk from Northumbria uni and just under 20 to city centre. No complaints, they’re trying their best in a hard time obviously things can’t be perfect considering the circumstance

Hello, thanks so much for your feedback. We are so happy to hear that you're having such a positive experience at PGSV thus far and we will be sure to pass your comments on to both the team and Elaine-- They will be excited to hear this!
Staff were excellent in helping get our flat groceries and parcels whilst we were isolating. I felt safe and reassured that I was not alone and if I needed further help it was easy accessible.

Thanks so much for your review! It's great hearing that the team at PGSV could make isolation a little bit easier on you, and that you feel safe living with us. We will let the team know what you've said!
The staff at Portland Green was always on hand to help with our deliveries whilst we was in isolation.

It's great to hear that you have had a pleasant living experience at PGSV thus far. Thanks for your feedback!
I have enjoyed my time at Portland Green Student Green Village so far as the bedroom, kitchen and facilities are at a high quality and allowed me to settle in quickly.

Thanks so much for your feedback! It's excellent to hear that you are enjoying your experience at PGSV.
Rooms and kitchens are very modern, and the site team are very helpful

We're pleased to hear that you are enjoying your time at PGSV. Thanks so much for your review!
Very modern and comfortable accommodation, in a perfect location with a tesco on the corner and a park right behind the block. I had to isolate due to covid 19 and the staff were so helpful and supportive, post was delivered to our doors along with our bins been taken out when requested. Although we cannot socialise outside our flat we have been provided with other opportunities to meet new people virtually such as a zoom quiz. I would recommend anyone to book here.

Wow, thanks so much for this review! We are so happy to hear that, in spite of these strange times, you've had such a fun and positive living experience at PGSV. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the team!
Despite covid, I’ve still had a great time so far at Portland Green! The staff are helpful and welcoming and are always willing to go the extra mile to help you out. I’ve found the maintenance guys will always do as much as they can to help no matter what the issue is. I would recommend PGSv.

Thanks so much for this feedback! We're happy to hear that the team at PGSV have gone above and beyond during these strange times, and that you have had a positive living experience with us thus far. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to the team!
The staff are all so friendly and helpful. It’s so tough at the minute but they all work so hard, day and night. The evening cleaning staff are so lovely and will happily bump elbows.

Thank you for your positive review. We're so glad that you've found living at PGSV a great experience. We'll be sure to pass your comments on to the team!
Whilst in isolation the staff couldn’t help us enough, taking out our bins and dropping off our parcels. Thanks to them we’ve made it through lockdown!

Thanks so much for your five-star review! We're pleased that you all have made it through isolation, and that the PGSV team were there to help you along the way. They will be happy to hear that their hard work has not gone unnoticed!
Rooms are tiny, judging by how uncomfortable they are mattrasses could be well over 10 years in use. Had unsufficient hot water supply for months and didnt get fixed until the second term. Bike thefts every week without security being able to do something about it. Garbage everywhere as apparently no proper cleaning services. Laundery rooms were outsourced to Circuit and werent functioning for weeks without anyone on site doing anything about it, despite the fact that 4,50 per washing is incredibly expensive compared to other accommodations. Also laundry rooms exist only in two out of 5 builidings so had to drag all of it into a different building. A single common room with one pool & ping pong table for over a thousand students in five different buildings is simply ridiculous. Access logs for buildings flat and room doors was down for two weeks seemingly without anyone being able to fix it. Had to call reception every time I wanted to get out of my flat or get back into it.

Portland Green Student Village is the largest private student community in Newcastle with over 1,400 rooms. This is a mixture of both ensuites in clusters flats and self-contained studios. Thank you very much for your review. At Portland Green Student Village we hope all our residents are aware, we endeavour to fix any issues as quickly as possible. Our three 24-hour operational laundry rooms do occasionally have technical difficulties with individual machines. Once reported it is logged for an engineer to attend as soon as possible. We have also increased neighbourhood watch patrols and our onsite security. When a theft is reported the police are contacted to investigate the matter and a crime reference number is provided for insurance purposes. We also have two large social rooms across the 5 buildings for our students, which include pool tables, areas to meet and socialise with friends or take advantage of our spacious and quiet study pods.

This place is amazing. The Staff, facilities plus its not far from Uni.

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've had such a good experience at PGSV!
Great place to live. Home from home with great staff and great facilities.

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've had such a good experience at PGSV!
Very bad customer service, especially in a crisis such as the Covid-19 outbreak. Would not recommend; do not book/rebook with them, only after £££

Our number one priority in this ever-changing situation has been the safety of our residents and colleagues. The site team is extremely busy looking after our residents still in situ maintaining the facilities to the highest possible standard. We have increased cleaning measures, individual welfare checks on residents whist keeping the community of PGSV our top priority. The Abodus team is very busy behind the scenes currently reviewing the COVID-19 situation and how it impacts your lives, now and next term. We will be contacting all residents with further communications as quickly as possible.
The experience has been fantastic overall. The staffs are very efficient and friendly. Management is smooth and there's plenty of amazing events going on around the year. The only down side are the rooms. The can feel a little congested at times. Alao there are no reading lamps anywhere in the room, be that at the study table or over the bed.

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've had such a good experience at PGSV, and will pass your comments on to the site.
Good general experience, but some delays with promised cash back led to many students not having the money to carry on buying food without getting into further debt. Social events and free food are good. Room and en suite in good condition along with kitchen and social spaces

Thank you for your feedback! We will pass your comments on to the site.
Booking late in Rosedale Court is not something you want to do. I know people who have a TV and bigger fridge in bryson Court and paid less than me. Safety is probably best feature though and gym is alright. One issue I have is fridge size however freezer is more than suitable.

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've what you have to say, and we will pass your comments on to the site.
I love Portland green as its welcoming, social and there’s always events and stuff going on for students

I have been living in Portland, Rosedale Court. It has been an amazing experience so far. I’ll rebook it for the following year, for sure

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've had such a good experience at PGSV and that you'll be rebooking!
Good place near Northumbria University. Nice studio, however did not have the best experience moving in as it was dirty, but has since then been handled by the staff very well.

Good size room/ en suite and the kitchen space is good I wouldn’t mind having a lock on the toilet door and being able to keep the radiator on for longer because the rooms are quite cold

Really disappointed. Gym is not working. There was no warm water for a few days. Delays in cashback. Parcels just for 4 hours, when there are loong queues. The washing machines usually not working and full. Expensive as well.

Good place to live. Staff sometimes not on the same page. Halls and lifts could do with more regular cleaning. There has been cobwebs above entrance way doors in Newton Block C since we moved in.

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hearwhat you have to say, and we will pass your feedback on to the site.
Nice and friendly staff but the cleaning of hall ways could do better.

The maintenance people are really nice people and are always in a good mood. The people on the desk are always smiling and helpful. Also, the 24-hour desk is quite helpful for nights out or studying late. The couple days of the broken card reader was the only problem I have had with the accommodation, everything else has been great esspically for the price with tge cash back

Pretty average accommodation although expensive for what you're getting. Especially compared to the other university accommodations. Maintenance is pretty good. Lovely guys who are happy and willing to help. There have been multiple issues with keycards not working to the point where everyone has realised that you can just force the doors open if you lush hard enough. We also didn't have hot water for a week and were not compensated for it in any way.

Thank you for your review! We will pass all your comments over to the staff to make them aware of your feedback.
Love it at Portland green. I’ve stayed at Rosedale Court for the last two years and it’s so cheap!! The rooms are a nice size, loads of storage and the kitchens are a good size too. The best part about Portland green are the staff, they truly cannot do enough for you. They really make it feel like a home away from home and the amount of social events that they have including quizzes, exercise classes etc really make a difference when you’re new and even to me my second year in. Overall, I couldn’t suggest it enough, so close to uni!

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've had such a good experience at PGSV, and that you'd recommend us!
I have enjoyed the warm welcome to my accommodation with very helpful and friendly staff available to help you 24/7 , always clean and hygienic with lots of social spaces. Although it personally hasn’t been the best social experience for me the accommodation and staff itself has been amazing.

Thank you for your feedback! It's great to hear you've had such a good experience at PGSV!
The staff are so helpful and friendly, the flats themselves are spacious and have great social kitchen/living areas. The halls themselves are in a great location with everything within walking distance
