Perfect home away from home! I traveled from Portland to Seattle for business. As a solo traveler I felt 100% safe and relaxed during my 4 night stay at The Bruno. Located in a quaint residential neighborhood, this private 1 bedroom subterranean apartment is perfect for 1 person or a couple looking for quick accessibility to all Seattle has to offer (particularly if you are traveling by car) but also offers a respite from the crowds and noise of the city. Parking was ample in the neighborhood (no fee or permits required) but I was able to utilize the driveway as I drive a Mini Countryman. Kim and Willa thought of and provide everything one could need! Bruno even welcomed me himself! :) Personal touches such as fresh flowers upon arrival really makes you feel welcomed! Especially after a 3 1/2hr drive! Check in was easy- the hosts messaged me with a nice hello and let me know they were accessible should I need them. They never made me feel uncomfortable or felt overbearing as an on-site host (they live in the house portion- this unit has a private entrance to the basement unit) The inside of the unit is spotless! Simple and clean is brought together by a nice warm decor. It was beautiful and sunny during my stay, the unit offered some nice natural light. In the living room, a smart TV is mounted with a decent channel selection there is a small table with two chairs for dining or can double as a work space. The WiFi is sufficient -so it’s not a problem if you have to catch up on emails. The bed is comfortable and cozy with a soft (but firm) memory foam bed. Bathroom has a larger tile shower(no tub) with a touchscreen (super cool!) mirror! Leave your bulky hair tools at home, there’s 2 hair dryers. 1
Hair straightener and a 2” curling iron a long with basic toiletries in case you forget something. The kitchen has nice counter space, all in one microwave, air fryer, and oven!! There is also a glass hot plate. Perfect for reheating or prepping a simple meal. They have a full array of utensils and dish set for 4! There is a full sized fridge and dishwasher. The Bruno is a gem! Particularly in comparison with other properties in the greater Seattle area it is is such a value! Thank you Kim and Willa for a such a great stay! I look forward to visiting in the future and to anyone looking to book, I definitely recommend “The Bruno” for a quaint Seattle retreat!
