I stayed here for 4 days and 3 nights with a group of 7. There were several things that made our stay unpleasant though the host Lynne tried to accommodate some aspects and was quick to respond for the most part.
The good:
- Location was close to many of the neighborhoods and places we sought out to be in.
- There was enough room for the 7 of us though I do wish there was more seating in the living area so that everyone could have relaxed together.
- There is AC in almost every room but two.
- When asked a question about how to use the futon, Lynne sent help right away though we figured it out before they got there.
The bad:
- Upon arrival, we realized we were at the wrong address. This was because the address they listed on AirBnB was different from the one they gave in their welcome packet. This was a minor inconvenience and Lynne was quick to verify that the address in the welcome packet was the right one, but I don't think this shouldn't have been a discrepancy I had to worry about since the booking was through AirBnB, not Seattle Vacation Home.
- The townhouse was a bit difficult to find once we arrived and had to navigate through the various townhouse buildings but that wasn't a huge issue. Once we got there, a keypad with a personal code allowed for us to go in with ease.
- The cleanliness of the place was not up to standard and the carpet on the floors in each room were VERY dirty. There were various dead bugs and stains that made it uncomfortable to want to roam around free without shoes. The bedding seemed fine and the common areas were fairly clean.
- The main issue we had was the fact that after night 2, the hot water in the townhouse completely turned off. Everyone had to take cold showers in the morning and while they did send help several hours later (the issue was looked at around 3-4pm), it wasn't until I reached out again that she offered to put us up in another house. I didn't appreciate that she hadn't reached out and updated us first and didn't even apologize for the major issue at hand. With only one night left, it would've been more of an inconvenience to have to move all our luggage, groceries, etc out of the house and to another that we opted to stay.
Overall, I would not stay here again for the amount that we paid and the poor experience we had. We thought it would be a great stay considering the great reviews left on this page, but we were sorely wrong.
