The three best things about this spot:
- safe neighborhood + walking distance to Storyville, Safeway, Trader Joe's, Starbucks (6 minute walk)
- everything else is a $10 lyft away (Pikes, Ballard, etc.)
- SUPER clean + comfortable sleeping arrangements (the linens could use an extra softener sheet in the load IMO but otherwise, great!)
Other great things:
- back deck has some outdoor seating; great for the mornings/nights as the breeze flows from that direction
- some games available in the dining room drawers (bottom)
- extra towels + linens available
- no bugs in the area so leaving windows + doors open for ventilation is a great option
Things to note:
- No ice maker but some trays available for restocking the current ice tray.
- For larger groups, there is only one shower shared with the toilet and a second toilet downstairs.
- The front door's top half is a large glass window that you cannot cover. Don't leave valuables in view of the front door as you cannot cover it up.
- Lastly, the back/last portion of the home is not level + may be a deal breaker for some of you but for a temporary stay, no big deal.
Clarification I would have wanted to know prior to booking:
- there is a room with a king sized bed; another room with a queen AND a single; downstairs living rom has the pull out bed (very comfortable).
- the dishwasher's detergent compartment is broken so you'll have to hand-wash dishes but the kitchen is fully stocked with all of the utensils, pots/pans, glassware you'll need.
