Over the last seven years of travels, I would say the boathouse is by far one of my favorite Airbnbs I have ever stayed in!
My boyfriend and I stayed here while we looked for apartments after moving to Seattle from the East coast. It was so nice to stay somewhere with such a personal touch. You can tell that Alissa and Jeanne have put a ton of care into it-- it is truly special place. From our first night it felt very homey.
Perks: very spacious and so much natural light-- even on those dreary Seattle days! The kitchen is fantastic, we cooked every day and had everything we could have needed. HEATED floors! Something I didnt even know I needed. Such a nice touch.
The location is perfect. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and grocery stores. 1 block from the bus stop. Im really glad we chose to stay in West Seattle, its so laid back. Plus, a quick drive to Alki Beach or the water taxi downtown.
I honestly can't think of any cons. As long as you are okay with open loft sleeping and a ladder to get upstairs, book this place! If you have a car make sure you are comfortable with parallel parking, the spot is a little tight.
Stay here, I promise you won't regret it!
