THE NEIGHBORHOOD We're in Hillman City in south Seattle — a walkable, unpretentious pocket of the city with some of the best ethnic food in the region. Seward Park and Lake Washington are a 3-minute drive, Columbia City with its farmers market and local organic grocer is 4 minutes, downtown Seattle is about 14 minutes, and the freeway is 7. Alki Beach is roughly 18 minutes and Pike Place about 17. Bus lines, bike paths and trails are all close by, though we'd recommend a car for exploring the wider area.
PARKING AND ACCESS One assigned parking stall is yours, with two compact overflow stalls along the fence shared with the upstairs unit, plus free street parking. Entry is through your own private door on the right side of the house — just two steps up from the walkway, with no interior stairs and everything on one level once you're inside.
PETS We absolutely love furry friends and we know that they're a part of the family. However, we do reserve the right to decline on a case by case basis. We kindly request that you check with us prior to booking and let us know. We ask they stay off the furniture and bedding, and that you scoop the poop—because no one likes surprises in the yard. All pets also need to be house trained.
GOOD TO KNOW Noise: This is the lower level of a duplex, so there's a unit above you — and we've put real work into making sure that isn't your problem. Our remodel added a sound barrier to the ceiling specifically for this, and in practice most guests hear nothing beyond the occasional footstep. We mention it so there are no surprises.
Surveillance cameras: We want to ensure that our home is safe and secure, so we do have surveillance cameras monitoring the exterior perimeter of the house around the clock. Don't worry though, we won't be using them to spy on you, we just want to make sure that our home and guests are safe and secure.

Hello friends! I'm Tracy, and I was raised right here in south Seattle. Quyen, an electrical contractor with roots in Hawaii, and I have been hosting since 2013 under our small family brand, QTStay. We love working on projects and creating inviting spaces, and we're glad to share our homes with travelers. We're quick to reply and always happy to share our favorite local spots.
Why they chose this property
This is the neighborhood I grew up in. Hillman City sits between Seward Park and Columbia City in south Seattle, one of the most diverse zip codes in the country, and it shows in the food: there are many great and delicious ethnic restaurants just minutes away. Lake Washington and the Seward Park trails are a 3-minute drive (about a 15-minute walk), Columbia City's farmers market and local organic grocer are 4 minutes, and downtown Seattle is about 14 minutes by car. It's a real, lived-in city neighborhood rather than a tourist district, which is exactly what we love about it.
What makes this property unique
We fully remodeled this lower-level suite in summer 2026, including a sound barrier in the ceiling to keep noise from the upstairs unit to a minimum. You get 1,000 sq ft all on one level, a private fully fenced backyard (great for kids and dogs), a full kitchen with stainless appliances and quartz counters, a full-size washer and dryer inside the unit, a dedicated workspace, fast wifi and heat pump AC/heat in every room. Free on-site parking is included, pets are welcome, and the space is set up for longer stays as well as weekends.
