Hal’s property is more of an experience in itself, in lieu of just lodging. It exceeds the “just an affordable place to stay, since I won’t be in the room much” aspect and really stands alone as a world-class Airbnb offering. Every element of the space is thoughtful and functional, while also being artistic and refreshing. It is in an extremely walkable area that is close to many restaurants, destinations, and transit stations. I was able to do a full week with no car easily. Hal is an excellent and attentive host, while also providing space and privacy. He is knowledgable about spots to visit town and the neighborhood, and very approachable if you have any questions. A bit of advice from me — make sure you have the vintage stereo set to 90.3 KEXP the whole time, and don’t count out that top bunk. The views from the top window and green space give a beautiful perspective of the hilly landscape with seaplanes coming and going though the air. I will most definitely be back, and overall this is a 10/10 experience/stay.
