  The apartment was very comfortable and impeccably clean. The hosts were warm and welcoming, ensuring everything was thoughtfully prepared for a truly home-like experience. It had all the appliances you might need, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. The neighborhood was peaceful and pleasant.
  Downtown Seattle is just 15 min drive.

• Carrie from United States – 14 July 2024 (8/10)

  Very comfortable and relaxing apartment with a nice view from patio. Super clean and lots of nice touches to make you feel at home including coffee and tea. Eco-friendly property as well plus it was very cool on hot days we were there. Uber service was quick to and from this location.
  
  What could be improved: Walking to restaurants/bars wasn’t the easiest as although they weren’t far it’s a very steep hill back to apartment which is tough on anyone older or not used to such hikes…especially with a full stomach.

• Heather from United States – 12 July 2024 (9/10)

  This is the lower level of a sweet old bungalow set on a hill, so the apartment has good natural light. You also have a lovely patio garden to enjoy, complete with an eating area. The view is great, as are the garden plantings. Inside is warm and inviting, with saturated colors and Indian (Hindu) artwork. There’s a lovely yoga nook, and both bedrooms are cozy. Shower is excellent in the bathroom, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Parking on the street was never an issue, because this is a quiet residential neighborhood. We really enjoyed using this as our base in Seattle and highly recommend it.
  
  What could be improved: The lighting was confusing at first, but once we figured it out, everything was fine.
