Trying to be fair here. This place is hidden but definitely not a gem. Best feature is it is truly walking distance to the light rail. Probably OK for a night or two but was not a good fit for the length of stay we had. In fairness , it was priced in the low end of things. Do know that there is a family of 5 upstairs with three younger children so expect some noise from them, especially on their frequent “movie nights.”I wouldn’t say not to stay here, just know it’s not a Gem, just a conveniently located place to crash.

Nice location about 20 minutes or so from Seattle with some good restaurants nearby. Good size for 2 people but would be tight for more than that. My cousin and I stayed for a week and it was generally quiet. Just note that no laundry, oven/stove, or freezer available. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.

My shoreline apartment

I enjoy staying in this vrbo when I am visiting family in Shoreline. Even though I have only stayed twice it feels very comfortable, like it is my own hide away. I will look to stay here whenever I am in town. It is quiet, clean, and in a great location.

A very pleasant property

We enjoyed our stay and appreciated that we didn't have to drive a long way from the area to stay in a hotel. The studio apartment is immaculately clean. As the family lives upstairs, there was some happy "kid noise" on occasion, but being a retired first grade teacher, that did not bother me a bit. Other than that, the rental was very private.

Nice little place

This was a nice little place just north of Seattle. It was clean, well equipped and perfectly accessible to downtown Seattle with a car. I gave this place almost perfect scores, but, I had to give the overall rating only 4 stars because, all though it did not bother me, there was a lot of religious decor, including a bible, bible quotes in frames and god stickers. I, personally am perfectly fine with it, but other guests may not like the overly religious overtones. I am gay, so it made me feel a little uncomfortable that the owners may not want someone with my life style staying in their place. I’m not saying this is true of the host because we never met, but I wouldn’t want to offend someone, so I think it should be listed on the website that it is christian themed.
