We enjoyed Sherry's modern, spacious and extremely clean apartment, which had some of the best amenities I've ever had in an airbnb! Sherry really thought of everything that would make a stay comfortable and did not skimp out at all-- there's enough body wash/shampoo/conditioner/makeup-remover for at least a month's stay for at least 10+ guests, an almost ridiculous amount of toilet paper stockpiled, plenty of cleaning supplies and laundry detergent (it was nice being able to do our laundry!), etc.
The photos of the apartment are very accurate, so there should not be any surprises. The main living area with the open kitchen was very comfortable to lounge in and have meals in. The rooftop deck is actually even nicer in-person, as it has patio furniture that is not shown in the photos, and is a nice place where you can sit and eat in the morning or evening when it's not as hot.
The location was also a pleasant surprise as well-- close to the International District, there are a lot of diverse restaurants and carryout places, and we enjoyed Vietnamese and Ethiopian food during our stay. It's only a 5-10 minute walk to Little Saigon and the Saigon Vietnam Deli, where I had the best Vietnamese food I've ever had (and at unbelievably low prices to boot). The neighborhood also feels safe
The check-in process was very easy (Sherry will text you the door code) and I appreciated how flexible Sherry was about the luggage policies and being able to drop off and leave your luggage before and after checkout.
The only criticism we had was about the A/C situation (obviously, this does not apply to the cooler fall/winter season). My understanding is that Seattle summers have historically been mild, but the heat waves experienced by the PNW this year may be an ongoing issue in the future. We stayed at this apartment during a heat wave where temperatures were in the 90s, and since I was traveling with elderly relatives, I was somewhat concerned to find out that there was no central A/C and instead, there are A/C units only in the living room (which is located on the second floor) and in the master bedroom on the third floor.
That being said, If you crank up the A/C in the living room, that unit does a good job filtering cold air down to the two bedrooms on the first floor, and those bedrooms are able to stay nice and cool. Unfortunately, the A/C unit in the master bedroom does not do as good a job pumping cold air into the neighboring upstairs bedroom, so my cousin who was staying in that bedroom had a pretty uncomfortably warm experience, even with the use of the fan. So, it's really only that one bedroom that is problematic, and only in very hot weather. I think all guests should be able to have a comfortable experience so long as the weather remains cool or, if the weather is hot, by avoiding the second upstairs bedroom.
To be fair, I don't exactly fault Sherry for the A/C when the lack of central A/C seems to apply to most homes in Seattle. In fact, this apartment is ahead of the curve because a lot of the other airbnbs we looked at don't have any form of A/C, period. I think it would be good if this were explicitly stated in the listing though, just so that guests who may have special needs can be aware of this. My other long-term suggestion is that Sherry think about getting an A/C wall unit or portable A/C unit for that one upstairs bedroom.
