Tim's house was a great place for my family's home base for our week in Seattle. We stay in a few rentals per year and this was in the top 10 percent. It was clean and in generally good working condition, and the furniture was comfortable. The neighborhood is a gem with several very good family-friendly restaurants within four blocks, about a mile away from a bustling shopping area and a small lake. It is also less than a mile from the zoo. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed it and would come back again.
A few house truths: 1. It is located next door to a recreational marijuana store, which concerned me at first, but we had zero problems. It was the functional equivalent of a boutique shoe store -- no noise or odors, and the customers were polite. 2. Only one of the two upstairs bedrooms had a portable air conditioner, and the kids were a little sweaty some nights. 3. There is no outdoor grill.
