We only stayed here for a short period of time (2 nights), but it was amazing!
Kazami is a wonderful person. He is easy to communicate with, and he gives great recommendations. He clearly knows the city and its finer intricacies. He is calm and welcoming, and he even helped us carry our luggage all the way up in our room. You will definitely feel at home because of how hospitable he is.
The whole house itself is very clean and organized. We greatly appreciated the complete and detailed guidelines and house rules given to us. The place is also quiet which will help you relax through the night. Its location is close to downtown Seattle (it'll cost you about $6~8 for an Uber ride) which makes it highly accessible for the spots you want to go to.
The local transit is favorable to people that would mostly go around downtown. You would have to buy an ORCA card (a stored-value card that you can buy passes with as well) to go around places. A side-note, make sure you buy passes online in advance as it can take around 24~48 hours for it to activate. If you don't want the hassle, reload/buy the passes through the ticket vending machines in some stations.
With that bit aside, it was relatively easy going home from downtown to the house as it only took us a bus ride. On a more personal experience, a section of the bus trip going home might be a bit revealing for you at night as it goes through an area of the International District where less fortunate people can be visibly seen.
If you weren't aware of Seattle's topography, it is mostly hilly, so be prepared for it. The house is located in such place, but it isn't a steep hill to climb. This actually makes its location even more amazing as you can clearly see some panoramic views even when you're just in your room.
Seattle has a lot to offer, and Kazami's place would be perfect for anyone that wants to explore the city. We would love to be back here next time we visit.
Again, thank you for the wonderful time, Kazami.
