This location is perfectly suited for exploring the offerings of the Columbia City neighborhood and beyond. There are lots of wonderful pubs and family friendly restaurants in the area, many within walking distance. A great coffee shop is just around the corner on South Ranier. A wonderful playground is about 4 blocks away on 42nd Ave, which was enjoyed by the kids we were wrangling!
The house adequately met our needs for a family of 6 adults and 2 kiddos. It has a great backyard for kids to run around, but one needs to abide by the house rules to keep noise down and not use the patio after 9 pm—I suspect quite cocktails on the patio after that time might be acceptable, but it is important not to bother the neighbors.
The manager/owner of the property was very responsive to our needs coming up during our stay. We had an issue with the TV that was promptly resolved, which we greatly appreciated.
There are some touches that could be added to make the house feel a bit more homey, such as some artwork on the wall.
Overall, we were quite comfortable and enjoyed our stay!
