The view was astounding! Shannon was delightful and very helpful. The unit was impeccably decorated and very cozy. Parking under a carport is nice for those rainy Washington days. It's important to note that this is not a daylight basement. But the large family-shared deck is beautiful! It was in a great location, close enough to do things locally but also close to the I-705 freeway, which connects to I-5. It's a wonderful place and a good choice.

We had a great visit and were happy with the ease of our accommodations. The basement suite was small but just what we needed for a place to call home while we attended a family wedding and enjoyed exploring the surrounding area!

This property is good but there are a couple down sides that really bothered me. It is a basement and the floors from the upstairs are noisy when the owner walks on them. The owner was playing music and laughing loud enough that we could hear it very easily in the basement until about 11:30pm. The deck, which is in the main picture, is upstairs next to their front door. When we got there in the evening they were already occupying it and playing their music and I really didn't want to share it with them and they probably not with us. I liked the view from the deck but it was useless to us. The other main complaint was the temperature control for the room. The central system that they control upstairs controls the basement temperature. We were not able to set a thermostat temperature for what we wanted. They provided wall heaters on outlets that had a temperature control but even being set on 90 degrees it still couldn't get thet temperature much above 70. It was probably 65 when we got there in the evenings. The temprapedic bed is worn out. I sat with my back against the head board and when I laid down I felt like my head was lower than my feet most of the night. I would have been happier with just a hotel

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry the suite wasn’t the right fit for your stay. As clearly noted in the listing, this is a private basement suite within a shared home, so some noise from upstairs can be expected, and the deck is also specifically listed as a shared space. We love our summer evenings on the deck as much as our guests do! The temperature is controlled from upstairs, and most guests appreciate how cool the suite stays during the summer. I wish you had let me know that you were uncomfortable, as I would have been happy to adjust the temperature immediately. I also appreciate the feedback on the mattress and will take a closer look at it. I’ve only been told it’s comfortable. I always encourage guests to reach out during their stay so I have the opportunity to address anything that may affect their comfort.
