We needed a place to stay while visiting our daughter in Beacon Hill and this room was just round the corner (albeit uphill). We had a very pleasant stay and Leslie was a great host - making sure we checked in OK and making space in her refrigerator for our stuff.
This is a private room in a house. You walk up one flight of stars (so not wheelchair accessible) to a deck with beautiful views of T-Mobile stadium and the Olympic Mountains in the background. When you enter the house (key is in lockbox), you walk to the bedroom through the shared living room/home office and past the bathroom. The hosts sleep in the loft above the bedroom.
Everything was as expected. The house had character with a pull-up rig in the living room and furnishings made from reclaimed items (the front door could have been the office door of a hard-boiled detective, the kitchen counter made from reclaimed wood, kombucha brewing under the bench, etc.). The bathroom was cool with a deep soaking tub and bidet (hosts stay clear of the bathroom during the stay).
Location not in a touristy section so the street is not busy at all (note Boeing airfield is nearby but we live near the airport too so used to it). Buses are nearby and we were able to walk downhill to the International District. Street parking was easy as we were driving.
For breakfast, we were able to use the shared kitchen where a pour over kit and French press was available for coffee. Didn’t see a microwave but there was a toaster oven that met our simple need for breakfast.
All in all, a restful, pleasant stay with friendly hosts.
