• Seattle Stay

  5/5

  We were there for a graduation and then a little site seeing. Place was great, good location for what we needed. Everything we needed was close by and far enough away from downtown that we didn’t get trapped in traffic.

• Nice unit - Great location for our needs

  4/5

  We rented this unit in January of 2024, when Seattle was experiencing a 30 year record cold spell. Temperatures were in the teens. This is a basement unit, and the unit upstairs controls the furnace.

  Unit was a bit cool (Think 60-65) when we checked in. Called our contact and left message. Over the next little bit we found the four space heaters in the two bedroom closets and turned them on. Also discovered 3 of the 4 windows were cracked open a bit.

  Oops, blew a breaker. Breaker box was in the unit, so we could turn them back on and reposition the heaters so they were not on the same circuit. Agent called us back about this time less than 15 minutes after leaving message.

  Once we got the heaters up and running all was well. Unit was clean. Mattresses seem brand new. Bedding was great.

  Kitchen is simple, but we didn't cook in the unit. Just coffee and breakfast in the morning. A couple glasses of wine in the evening.

  Day two, the owner was by and adjusted the furnace temp from the upstairs unit. Unit was overly warm the rest of the stay and we even opened a window now and then to cool it down.

  Unit parking is in the alley. We drove during the day as we knew it would be dark and late when we checked in. Recommend others do the same. See signs coming from one direction, but not the other.

  Will stay again. Great little two bedroom unit close our Seattle family members. Neighborhood homes well kept and area feels safe.

  The property was unique. Two bedrooms in a basement. No central heat or A/C. Poorly lit

  or no outside lighting at night made it very difficult to find. Good amount of space. It said there was a washer and dryer, but they were locked and unavailable. The property manager was amazing and tried to help, but to no avail.
