We had to find a last minute place when our plans changed and this was a great find. We usually prefer a private entrance/entire place to ourselves but this had to suffice. It is a spacious bedroom with a shared deck (which is not indicated) and a beautiful view of Lake Washington. The listing says the rooms lock but do not clarify that you can lock your room from the inside but not from the outside. The host was away but had a very nice guy, Ryan, overseeing the place. Everything was communal in the kitchen which was fully stocked. We were not aware that there was a shared bathroom but it was an ok situation and also well stocked. The listing said the house had central air conditioning which worked well downstairs but never really cooled off our bedroom. Ideally upstairs should be a separate zone. They did try to accommodate and were responsive to our inquiries.
The neighborhood is nice and we explored the Lake area, went on a hike in Frink Park, visited the Seattle Japanese Garden and the Washington Park Arboretum. Eating spots to check out: Golden Wheat Bakery, Taurus Ox, Meet the Moon, BluWater Bistro, Harvest Vine, and Musang, and Lan Hue Sandwich and Bakery.
