We booked Kianoush's place while on an extended work trip. The unit is minimalistic but comfortable. There's exposed brick and charming character, while having updated furniture and appliances. The high ceilings made the studio feel spacious. The bed wasn't too soft or firm so we both slept well. There's a fan over the bedroom and the home stayed relatively cool for a warmer spring week in Seattle.
My wife stayed in the home working remotely during the weekday and we were so thankful that Kianoush was so quick to respond to any needs - like my wife getting locked out because she grabbed the wrong keys. The wifi worked without interruption or delay for her as she worked remotely.
You're within walking distance of some great restaurants, coffee, and shops. It was about a 10 min walk to downtown, and you have quick access to the freeway. I will mention that there truly are a lot of homeless people in this Seattle neighborhood, as the host mentions. We live in a downtown Portland and are used to such city vibes, but this could be alarming if this is your first city stay. The entrance has two locked doors, and inside the building you feel like you're in a quaint city nook.
Kianoush was a great host, friendly and accommodating. She definitely went above and beyond to communicate and make sure we had what we needed. She told us the building has been in her family for years and they keep it well maintained.
We highly recommend Kianoush as a host, and this home for your next Seattle stay.
