Great location

House was clean, well stocked, and comfortable for 4 adults. We had no issues so did not have to contact Cindy & Jose during stay. The driveway is no joke. We rented a truck due to other steep driveway reviews and sure glad we did- hope your backing skills are good as not enough room to turn around if longer truck - it all worked well for us. Bus stop at corner was convenient & were easy to navigate for us country folks. Neighborhood was safe and quiet. An overall great place to stay!

Great home base for a fantastic trip

The property was exactly as described and served as a fantastic home base as we explored Seattle and the Cascades. We greatly enjoyed our time here. Other reviews are not joking about the driveway clearance. If you plan to visit and do need a car, opt for something that sits up high. We had no issues using transit and street parking in the neighborhood so no big deal. Will definitely be looking to stay here again if it is available next time I'm in town.

Home far away from home

My wife and I flew about 8000 miles all the way from Buenos Aires, Argentina to Seattle to spend the holidays with our daughters that recently moved into town. We chose this particular place because it was close to them but the house surpassed all our expectations.. it was absolutely perfect

Cute Victorian cottage

Overall a nice place to stay! We loved being close to the convention center, but also feeling away from the city even though it right there! Listen to what they say about the drivewayas it is very steep but doable and we had a Jeep Grand Cherokee. Beds could use some upgrading. That was really our only complaint. We had a spider friend that wanted to join our festivities....he was ginormous!! Cindy and Jose were great hosts and always prompt in answering any questions we had...left us a sweet note to welcome us. Would consider this VRBO if we were coming to Seattle again!

Great location, fully functional, and adorable, too!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this charming Seattle cottage. The house was perfect for us. The location is great, with four good grocery stores and many restaurants within walking distance. We didn't need a car! The house is furnished with vintage amenities, all very practical and un-fussy. The beds were comfortable, and it was cozy and warm. The kitchen is tiny but very well-appointed; we had everything we needed to fully prepare our own meals. Our hosts obviously put a lot of thought into making this a delightful place for guests. They were excellent communicators and were very kind and generous in accommodating some special requests. We appreciated their commitment to recycling and composting and they made it easy for us to comply. I would love to stay here every time we go to Seattle!

We enjoyed staying here - it's a very quiet neighborhood. It's also walking distance to lots of shops & restaurants. The kitchen is a bit small if you plan to cook but it's well equipped. It's also nice to have off-street parking.

Great little house in Seattle

Cute little house that we stayed in for the labour day long weekend. Close enough to walk around Capital Hill (it is quite hilly), and under $20 Uber to Pike Place Market. We loved the little patio out back - played cards, drank some wine, and had some laughs. Loved it.

Perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is cozy, the location perfect. The street is very quiet. We relied on public transportation for our entire stay and the bus stop was just at the corner. We had a great time here and would highly recommend this place! Grocery stores are within walking distance and so are coffee places and restaurants. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home!

Beautiful home- convenient location!

The property was wonderful! The period details were lovely, thoughtfully decorated, very nice linens and spacious enough for four comfortably. The washer and dryer were a great bonus. Located in a lovely neighborhood short drive or bus ride to downtown but great restaurants, parks, cool eat in movie theatre and a cafe all within walking distance - including a Trader Joe's! Nice pirvate yard and comfy porch. Highly recommend!
