Two thumbs up! Sean and his family offer a clean, safe, peaceful, welcoming, friendly, easygoing lodging experience within their lovely home. I would stay here again in heartbeat. I normally strongly prefer self-contained private lodgings, but this was an exception to the rule. I felt completely at ease here and with them, and slept very well in their roomy, quiet guest room. The shared bathroom is immaculate and roomy. Everything is thoughtfully appointed, clean and current, with absolutely nothing fusty nor musty. Parking was directly in front of the house -- easy!

I had contacted them ahead of time about whether my dog would be welcome, and they said he would. It turned out to be a great visit for the dog, too! A large park is a few steps away -- great for on-dog walking.

Note that the neighborhood is very residential, and at least a half hour by car or public bus from downtown Seattle during traffic hours. But as noted above, I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

What really makes this a great lodging choice in the Seattle area are the hosts. Super friendly and easy-going. Lovely family! If you're going to stay in another person's home when travelling, this is the best kind of experience to have. Excellent!
