This was the 3rd time I've stayed at one of Ali's properties and the 2nd time staying in this exact room. The location was convenient. There are multiple bus routes nearby that provide you with a one seat ride to downtown, west seattle, westwood village, the Link Light Rail, and other points of interests. The property was kept in relatively clean condition and was properly maintained. The bed was comfortable. The house was kept at a comfortable temperature despite there being multiple incidents of snow during my stay.
Ali was proactive with his responses and communication.
For the most part I had no problems during my stay. If anything the few issues I've had actually had nothing to do with the host. Probably the biggest issues I had to deal with was the fact that some of the other guests cooked greasy food early in the morning (6-8AM) and a lot of that grease odor became trapped in my room and woke me up. This happened 3 times during my 10 nights stay.
