Overall tire place was comfortable and conveniently located close enough to Capitol Hill, a 7-10 minute walk to some places to eat, and 15 -20 minutes or so to Bellevue.
It is under a flight path, but it didn’t bother us and there weren’t that many planes. The neighborhood was really quiet, generally. Beds and lounge space were comfy. Patio is weathered and could use some work. Parking was VERY tight. Parking on street was better.
I recommended Heberto put down some bright step strips in the kitchen and dining / tv area. The steps down are definitely dangerous if you don’t pay attention, as they blend in with the floor and are right next to the dishwasher on one side and a stool on the other.
There are very high countertops in the bathroom (for kids) and for shorter adults. Also the washer is quite high. There is no stool for either, so we bought one at grocery outlet. Water pressure was good.
The kitchen is bare in terms of cooking basics (no oil or much else) and there were no compost bags. The appliances and cookware we used were good.
No toaster. No lampshade on living room light or way to dim it. I don’t think there was even a pen or scrap of paper laying around for notes. And there were no recommendations for anything within walking distance, which was unfortunate, because the places we tried were a bit disappointing: Cafe Flora and the Kakigori ice cream place. There was some leftover coffee and a giant moka espresso maker.
We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnb’s and have one ourselves, so I don’t want to sound overly critical. We enjoyed our stay, but for the price and location, I felt this one could be better. Having said that, the second toilet was great to have.
