This location is very close to all of Seattle and is on a main street. However, the street noise can be loud well into the night. The street lighting , while it makes for a safe environment, is too bright for a person who likes sleeping in a darker bedroom. An easy fix would be to bring earplugs and a sleeping mask. Having one bathroom can make it harder for larger families sharing the house, but not impossible. We had seven family members, it may not work as well with 7 friends. The biggest complaint I have is the washer and dryer connections were not hooked up to vent anywhere and we did not know that or were told that. We used the washer and the rinse cycles spewed water all over the hallway (which we had to clean up) Until this is remedied, this will continue to be a problem. We did feel that the house was very clean and had all the utensils need to complete a good stay, including clean and comfortable beds
