Wonderful location
Many local shops, parks, and restaurants near by. Bus transit was easy to figure out. The home itself was very cozy, clean, and spacious. It was cuter than the photos. The only thing was the upstairs neighbors could be loud, but by the end of the day, we were too tired to care. Overall, will definitely stay there again!

Perfect location
This place was perfect. We were able to park our car in the provided spot and walk to almost all of our activities. Walking distance to the zoo, Fremont, the troll, and food. We had a 3 year old with us and it was doable for him too! The place was very clean, a comfortable layout, kid friendly, and the owner was friendly and checked on us multiple times via text. I would definitely stay here again.

What a great stay! Pro’s were it was super clean, great location, easy access to public transportation or walking, safe and mostly quiet. Con’s when people are upstairs it can be loud especially if they’re night owls and are stomp walkers. Otherwise, just a perfect spot for what we needed this trip!

Perfect Cozy Apartment!
We loved this place! Spent rainy summer weekend for a wedding with 4 of us here. It is a beautifully remodeled basement apartment so even though it is on a busy street, the apartment was very quiet. Literally steps away are two major transit lines, so you can bus to the breweries in Ballard, or hop a bus to downtown if you don't want to hassle with parking. You are also a 10 minute walk away from one of the best breakfast places in Seattle, and a really good grocery store. Highly recommend!!

Wedding
We were in Seattle to attend a wedding. The apartment was perfect. Enough room for my daughter, husband and I. Loved bus stop close by to visit downtown. Plenty of restaurants and coffee shops close by as well within walking distance. Also enjoyed chairs on patio for reading. We are continuing our travels with a west coast road trip so nice to be able to do laundry before leaving. Thanks again!

Perfect!!!
The basement apartment was super clean and had everything I needed and more. Teresa was very communicative throughout the process. The apartment is literally steps away from the "E" line, which takes a tourist to the major attractions in downtown Seattle. It was fun to stay in a residential area, and I would definitely come back to this location.

Great spot
We loved this location and the property had everything we needed including a parking space. We came at the perfect time of year for sure. WiFi worked well, and we had no noise or dirtiness issues. Kitchen is small but worked fine for us. If it’s super hot, there is not ac, but each room had a fan to use if needed, which came in handy!! Great place to stay, responsive host, and I will definitely go back when I’m in Seattle next!

We stayed for 3 days during our summer road trip. This little apartment was very clean, thoughtfully renovated, and well maintained. Having a laundry room was perfect for getting our suitcases refreshed for the second part of our trip. If ever in Seattle again, we will definitely stay here if it’s available!

Short and sweet
Low ceilings were navigable by my 6’1” husband and totally worth it for the peaceful, clean and friendly stay. Though located on a fairly busy street, inside was very quiet, though you may hear your upstairs neighbors if they have heavy feet. The decor lends itself to a calm, relaxing space. Our hosts were welcoming and responded right away with a pound of coffee when they heard the coffee canister was found empty. This is a fun and quirky neighborhood, one of my favorite in Seattle b We’d definitely stay again!

Fun in Seattle
This is a cute basement apartment with everything you need for a brief stay. The beds are comfortable and the manager welcoming and attentive. Thank goodness there is assigned private parking! Seattle neighborhood parking is challenging and the cars lining the streets make driving the narrowed streets a driving adventure. Easy access to downtown and many local sites.

Teresa was very easy to talk to and responded right away to all my questions. She’s a delight and the humor she added in her “things to know” book was amazing 😂. The place was fairly hard to find but Teresa can give you good directions if you get confused. It could have been cleaner in some areas - for example, the fans provided were both unusable because they were so filthy. A little better attention to the small areas would help. Otherwise, a great place to stay with amazingly comfortable beds and plenty of room!
