The location was perfect as our daughter lives in the neighborhood and it was an easy commute to their place. The Blue Saucer on the corner of Roosevelt and 92nd is a great little coffee shop

Thanks for your 5 stars review! It was a pleasure to host you. So glad you enjoyed your stay in the studio cottage and it worked well to see your daughter. Thanks for being great guests, we'd love to have you back soon!
The cottage was perfect for my stay. It was very clean and was much better than staying in a hotel room for a week. The neighborhood was walkable and seemed very safe.
A great stay for me to visit grandkids. Lovely yard and sitting area outside, which I used almost daily. Everything inside was tip top and clean. Walking access to coffee, restaurants and Maple Leaf park. Would love to return and stay here again!

So happy you enjoyed your stay and glad you were able to explore our fun neighborhood. Love yo jave you back!
It was in a great location, the neighborhood was quiet and I felt safe enough to go running around the neighborhood. In addition, it was just a short drive to the light rail station. The owner was very friendly, knowledgeable about Seattle and responsive regarding the small issues encountered as well as good at communicating with us regarding the check-in process.The kitchen was small but had most of the necessities.And the entire place was clean and in good condition.

Thanks for the 5 stars! Glad you enjoyed your stay and exploring the fun amenities of the neighborhood. Yes, it's a kitchenette (coffeemaker, small fridge, microwave), we have a full sized kitchen in the main house if you're looking for something more.Come back anytime! Thanks again for being great guests!!
Nice location in Seattle. Central to where I was visiting family members. Nice property in comfortable neighborhood. Owner responded promptly to couple of questions I had.
Trung offered a comfortable studio cottage in a beautiful residential neighborhood within a short drive of several of Seattle's major tourist attractions. Trung himself was a gracious host who shared valuable information about the neighborhood and the city, and he helped patiently and thoughtfully with a wi-fi issue I encountered during my stay. I would recommend his vacation rental to any traveler without hesitation.
Lovely little “cabin” for our short visit to Seattle. This space was nice and quiet, private, and well kept. Enough room for us to stretch out and have a small meal. Plenty of parking on the street. Easy to communicate with the host. Thank you!

Thanks for being terrific guests, please stay longer next time. We appreciate your 5 stars review, it's a delight to know the cottage served you well.
My stay here was great. The property is quiet and well-maintained. The neighborhood felt safe. The bed was comfortable and I had everything I needed. The yard is beautiful, a great place to have a cup of coffee and read. Trung is a helpful and responsive host.

A pleasure to host you. Thanks for the 5 stars review!
One room but perfect for one person. Quiet location behind garage. I did not cook anything, but there is a hot plate, microwave and dorm size refrigerator so you could. Owner very responsive.
Nice little apartment detached from main house very clean. I wish there was a double hot plate so I could’ve actually cooked some thing in the house, futon is a futon very uncomfortable, but other than that it was a great stay.

Glad to hear you had a great stay even if the cottage does not have a full kitchen. Even though it's a large space for a studio, we too wish we could fit more furnishings. Anyway, happy to host you again.
Comfortable and cozy location, both the apartment and the property. Good on-street parking in a quiet, safe neighborhood.
Trung, the host, was excellent to work with and appreciated his check-ins with us. The renter in the main house on the same property was great to chat with.
We were in Seattle to see our daughter at UW and will definitely be back to stay at Trung's place when we are in town next.

Thanks for the 5-stars review! We'd love to host you again!
My partner and I came from out of state to celebrate my best friend graduating from UW. She lives nearby in the Greenlake area so this location was perfect for quickly getting between the cottage and her home. It was cozy and gave us a mountain vibe while definitely being in the city. While the shower taking awhile to warm was a concern the first day- we found that running the bathroom hot water in the sink expedites heating the shower water up (idk how my partner figured that out but we are very happy lol). Overall we are very happy with our stay and the kindness from the host. We even talked about staying again if we come back this year.

Thanks for the 5-stars review, so glad you enjoyed your stay. Running the sink water helps if the hot water hasn't been used in awhile as the pipeline has to empty the existing cold water, as noted on our house manual. Once the hot water flow, it is unlimited with our on-demand hot water system. Come back anytime!!
Trung sent us the wrong agreement and when we arrived, we had some difficulties getting onto our place because it was July 4 and nothing was open. Eventually we got it sorted out, but that left us standing outside for more than an hour after a long drive.
The place was quiet and good for a couple. Didn’t like being charged extra for an additional person who was my husband. Street parking is good for a small vehicle. Bed was comfortable. Location great.

So glad you enjoyed your stay! VRBO is reworking their website so thank you for your patience with the mixed up documents. Our pricing is based on the size of your group, which VRBO details out in the lodging quote, and we believe it is more cost effective whether you're a single traveler, a couple or a large group, and more fair to your budget. We'd love to host you again, cheers!
A very nice and quiet neighborhood, lovely and comfortable accommodation, host was communicative and helpful. Highly recommended for/by a couple on vacation.
We enjoy traveling very much, that's why we enjoy using social media rentals. So glad you're able to visit Seattle as it's a great place to enjoy the outdoors and cultural diversities in music and foods. There are so many beautiful places to explore from the mountains to the sea. It's one of the reason we chose to raise our family here. We hope you have a wonderful time in Seattle!
Why they chose this property
We love the Craftsman era with big tall ceilings, very open and lots of windows so you get an abundance of natural light. A wonderful cottage in the backyard as optional to accommodate larger groups. Great neighborhood to stroll around with tree-lined sidewalks. A big beautiful park with surrounding neighborhood shops and eateries.
What makes this property unique
Close to Green Lake, Maple Leaf Park, Northgate Mall, Thornton Creek Cinemas (Regal Theaters), Northwest Puppet Theater, zoo, very easy freeway access.
