Malika is very responsive and accomodating. The area is not what I would consider West Seattle and not convenient to go to downtown Seattle. It is about 1+ hour drive around downtown Seattle. 2.5hr to Mt. Rainier park, 3.5 hr to Olympic park. There is a boarded up house next door and safety of the area was questionable so would not recommend walking around by yourself. Parking is tight in the street so smaller cars would be easier. House feels lived in with food in the fridge and cupboards like eggs and moldy bread. TVs were either not working or broken, Malika troubleshooted and offered to get a new tv sent in if it ruined the stay but it wasnt as advertised. Good place to stay for a place to stay for all day outings, wasn't that comfortable to lounge and hang out.
