Olympia stay

Loved the house and patio and that they were dog-friendly. A lot of steps for the seniors in our party, but a great house.

Family together time

Our host was very helpful in planning our stay and accommodating people coming from 3 states and 2 countries coming together. This was the perfect space to share and feel at home fir our time together. We appreciated the colorful walls and the comfortable furniture and the well stocked kitchen utensils. Plus all the fun things like the outdoor fire place and game room. We also liked being able to walk into downtown.

A lovely, cozy place!

I rented the house as a chaperone for seven teen legislative pages who spent the week working at the Capitol. They had a wonderful time, and the house was always nice to come home to in the evening. The basement was a perfect hangout for a group of young people, and we all enjoyed the cozy living room in the evenings.The only thing I had any trouble with at all was fitting my large vehicle in the narrow parking space. I got two parking tickets the first day for having the back end hanging over the driveway. I learned how to pull all the way up very carefully though, and the problem was solved.We loved our stay in Olympia!

Great location

Perfect house for us. Need to tell people ahead of time that driveway is on side of house. I was worried because host never replied when I asked for check in instructions before starting to travel. She should have answered and told me I'd get the code the morning of check in. It worried me that no reply. Did not reply to another message I sent.
