Small and compact but very liveable for a couple. Clean unit and on-site parking is a plus. The queen bed could use a "topper" but no negative comments on the cleanliness. Location was easy to find and we would recommend.

Hi Marilyn, We did ask if there was anything else you needed during your stay, but we didn't receive a response. We were surprised by the 4-star rating, as your comments described a very positive stay. We have never received complaints about the mattress before, and many guests specifically mention its comfort in their reviews. Of course, comfort is personal, and we respect your opinion. We were simply disappointed that the rating did not seem to reflect the experience you described. Best wishes, Beata & Rene

This little west Seattle get away made my visit to Seattle so much more enjoyable! The location is amazing and super walkable/easy to get to downtown Seattle/ buses were very easy & accessible. I was traveling alone and felt very safe in this neighborhood. Also loved that it was away from the city but still close enough. Beata & Rene were extremely accommodating and responsive! I will absolutely be back!

Everything about this lovely little nest, and my stay, was perfect - also, everything I was looking for. Spotless, quiet, calm, well-appointed, with beautiful art and cozy touches everywhere, including delicious chocolate treats! Beata is an excellent host - communicative, warm, and helpful. I loved the location, which seems to be within walking distance of just about everything, with plenty of stunning mountain and water views. Honestly, I can't wait to book another stay!
