I cannot emphasize enough how loud this home is with the windows open. It is situated on a corner alongside a very busy street with semi trailers, buses and emergency vehicles, making it extremely loud if the windows or patio doors are open. We left after one sleepless night and found somewhere quieter to stay. With the home closed up, it was much quieter, but we stayed during one of the hottest weeks this summer, so closing windows at night wasn't an option. It was 91 degrees in the master bedroom.
Otherwise, the home is super cute and extraordinarily clean. The host is great at communicating and there's a key code panel on the front door for keyless entry/exit, making check in/check out convenient and easy. The West Seattle neighborhood is charming and you can literally see a sliver of water from the rooftop deck. It's close to Alki Beach and cute small eateries and businesses. The West Seattle bridge is under construction, so you might want to factor in the detour in your travels. As for the functionality of the house...The main living area is on the second floor with the master on the third and murphy bedroom on the first. The sink on the first floor is only good for washing hands; a medicine cabinet hangs over the bowl so you can't wash your face or brush your teeth. You can't wash your face in the first floor powder room either; it's either the kitchen sink or the master on the 3rd floor. We were only two, so the two barstools provided for eating at the kitchen bar were fine. If your group is bigger than two and you want to dine together, take that into consideration too.
