I booked this place back in May 2022 in advance of a long-overdue family reunion in Seattle this month (September 2022). I wish I had returned to Airbnb to see more recent reviews, as the more recent concerns of others are accurate and would have raised red flags for me to reconsider my booking. We were a family of 4 (two adults, 2 kids under the age of 5). As at least one other person has stated, this is the first Airbnb stay that I would not recommend to others and in which the in-person experience is worse than the photos. Not an exhaustive list, but here are the major things that stood out to our family --
Pros:
- very child friendly: pack n play crib, baby bath seat, high chair, booster chair, tons of baby/kids toys and books, a whole set of plastic kids dishes and silverware in the kitchen
- comfortable memory foam mattresses on both queen beds (we did not use the twin beds so cannot comment)
- good location
Cons:
- very old house that needs updating and repair (numerous areas of staining and scuffed paint on the walls, at least one light bulb out in the kitchen, a base board falling off with exposed nails, a chip clip used to hold a heater vent together, old cigarette smoke smell)
- another reviewer mentioned poorly functioning electrical outlets in the bedrooms -- there are now power strips in each room as a workaround, which is functional but just disappointing
- despite being a kid-friendly house, the temperature of the water heater is set too high to be safe for children
