This property is pretty and unique, however, it is not appropriate for children. First off the pictures do not match what you get. There were multiple tools and nails left places. One of the side tables was supposed to me screwed into the wall for stability, but only placed. The entry way was completely unsafe for children. There are multiple signs around the apartment asking for quiet and you can only turn the tv up so loud. All of that is fine! I just wish it said it in the description. I have a 1 year old, 2 year old and a 7 year old. My youngest 2 have special needs and my 2 year old has severe sensory issues on top of that. Since there was no ac and we were on the top floor, it was scorching hot. My 2 year old was up all night and couldnt sleep. None of the fans provided worked, and he struggled to hear the tv. There were so many unsafe items for children. The owners solution is to leave the door open to catch a draft. Again, not safe for children. This place is appropriate for people without kids and really should advertised as such. I would have never stayed here with my family.

Great neighborhood stay in north Fremont. Nice to be close to Seattle town but have the charm of staying in a more relaxed setting. House has a lot of character and the accommodation had quirky charm. Loft room was handy, as was the Murphy bed in the living space- great for family with two adolescent boys who need separate beds. Well stocked with what you need, with the exception of tea towels. Still made that work, and would return for a stay again in the future. Thanks for having us!

I will stay again. Excellent location and host

The suite has been modernized and is both functional and comfortable. Location was convenient, just outside city center, with restaurants, stores within walking distance. A number of the appointments (shelves, homemade headboard) were not of the finest quality, but everything worked. The noise rules (eg. "don't bang suitcases against stairs on your way up") are stringent because of the old house with no sound insulation and multiple occupants. Probably impossible to comply if you have kids.

Great location. Nice building and friendly hosts. Needs better instructions on TV usage. Overall good experience. Plenty of room for 4 people

First time using VRBO; smooth process would do it again in a heartbeat. Very quiet safe neighborhood, slept with the windows open every night. Mexican restaurant around the corner was very good & a short drive to downtown.

The property was charming and in a great location, and the hosts were very nice. We were a little concerned with the wiring, which seemed like a DIY job. On occasion the kitchen lights dimmed for no apparent reason, and a reading light mounted in the headboard of the bed fell out of its mounting. There is no dishwasher, so hopefully the previous guests do a good job of washing the dishes. We ran into a couple of items that were not quite clean.

We loved our stay at this property. Wonderful sitting room to read in. The location is excellent: we used to live nearby, and picked it for convenient buses. When the internet was slow, we contacted the hosts and they got back to us very quickly and fixed the issue promptly.

This rental was the perfect birthday getaway for my daughter and myself. Very close to the bus stop into the city. We enjoyed the sites of the city and we were able to walk to the zoo and beautiful garden just up the street!!

Location was AWESOME!!! The price was manageable. The only issue was the upstairs bedroom. Was pretty hot. No A.C. the space is small, but it is so well appointed and thought out it was wonderful!

Cute place to stay, and has easy access to get to and from anywhere in Seattle. Parking at times was always a mystery, but we never parked too far from the residence. The only problem we had was getting the tv to work but that was really no problem at all. Talked to the owner the night before we left ( she lives on-site) and mentioned the tv issue. Definitely, the next time the family goes to Seattle, this is going to be the first place I will check to see if it is available.

A charming house with multiple sections for rent-we had the larger space suitable for six. The kitchen was gallery-style, but large enough to meet any needs. The upstairs bed provides privacy for teenagers. The furnishings are lovely and the beds are comfortable. Although the rules about noise seem much, they aren’t. The owners are simply trying to ensure normal modes of respect and quite honestly there are people who have no clue what that means. We never had a problem. We watched tv at a normal volume and spoke conversation at a regular level. No issues and we appreciated and enjoyed our stay!!

My family of 3 adults stayed here (the upper unit) for 3 weeks! We were considering a move to Seattle, and felt safe at this place despite the COVID risks with no vaccine at the time. Contactless check-in was easy, the hosts' descriptions are accurate and the host checked on us. We nicknamed the place "Grand Central" since the decor reminds us a bit of Grand Central train station, NYC. The neighborhood is nice, much quieter than we were used to despite the occasional construction, and while there's not really a yard to use, it's so close to the Woodland Park Rose Garden which is lovely to sit in. Our only complaints are that the electricity is wired a bit oddly, so if you use a lot of appliances be careful not to plug them all into the same circuits; and that there isn't much privacy from each other because one bedroom door is glass and the other has no door as it's the upstairs floor. Other reviewers mentioned heat, that can be an issue as the kitchen air goes right up to the second bedroom which only has one window, but the nights are cool and if you can open the windows the place airs out well. The kitchen works well and has great dishes, though bring some of your own cookware if you cook a lot. Parking on the street was really easy to find, often right in front of the house and if not then still within sight of it.

We were in the Seattle area for 4 days, group of 4 ladies geocaching, exploring and touristing. The place is amazing, would have wished for AC only because it was unusually HOT the days we were there. Hosts shared fans with us so we were able to sleep comfortably. I would definitely stay here again...

Thank you for the wonderful stay. I enjoyed it.

This cute little space is perfect for us! The neighborhood is beautiful and the house maintains its charm in the midst of construction going on around it. The owners are visible on site and helpful when we needed their assistance!

We had a great time and staying in the rental was a great location. Close to our son in Ballard and close to Woodward Park. We would stay here again, owners are very nice.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The location is a very good base for exploring this beautiful area for bicyclist, Kayaking, and walking.. Away from the city noise and convenient to any shopping needs. The home is a fine blend of historic architecture with modern details and quite comfortable. The Host are very gracious and know the area well.

Beautifully decorated in retro style. Very cozy. Comfortable beds. TV with great selection of networks etc. Great location. Short walk to grocery store, restaurants and zoo.

We agree with all of the favorable reviews of this property. The owners were very friendly and, for us, the location was ideal (we were visiting a son whose apartment was just blocks away). The place is within walking distance of the Woodland Park Zoo and its gardens -- a nice place to stroll in the mornings. But a couple of caveats: as others have noted, there was construction next door (and across the street) while we were there. That's not the fault of the owners, but it is what it is. Seattle also got warm while we were there, and the top-floor unit got toasty during the day. Finally, while the property is advertised as sleeping 6, once the numbers get above 4, things start getting tight (particularly in the kitchen, which has only 4 settings). One plus is that on-street parking was easy, even with a Grand Caravan!

This property was great, the location was excellent, easy walking to cafes, shops, parks, lake and transit. Very comfortable with bedrooms separated. Stayed with my son and there was enough space to be comfortable. nicely furnished and the owners were friendly and helpful. I will stay here again the only item of note is that the stairs are narrow, but it didn't impact our stay.

I am a global traveling disabled Veteran with severe combat I'm a disabled Veteran with severe Combat PTSD. I've Traveled most of the world & it's good therapy to be with my wife, traveling, but I need to be sure everything is set and understood before I go. I tried to contact the woman listed as the point of contact via messages and phone calls, but could never get through to her. I kept trying, but was always directed to a mans mail box. I left messages but he never replied either. I finally reached him and he was extremely rude to me and informed me I ruined his night. I asked where the woman listed as property manager was and he said he managed the property, not her, even though VRBO had her listed as the point of contact. When we arrived there was no WIFI password. I operate numerous huge social media accounts and must monitor them We couldn't get online to VRBO to search for a solution without internet, but luckily I had a WIFI hot spot on my phone and was able to find what I needed on VRBO. We contacted the property manager immediately when we arrived about all this, but didn't hear from him until the next day, close to lunch time The place has a dish washer listed, but there isn't one. There is no a/c and only one ceiling fan, in the main bedroom, but several windows, including all three in the kitchen have no screens, so this is a major comfort issue. When we tried to open the windows without screens bugs came in so we were forced to keep them closed and just be uncomfortable and hot. The TV remote didn't have batteries and I had to call to ask them to put some in. They said they had no cable but great TV antennae coverage, but we couldn't even get a watchable picture for the local NFL game right down the street. They stress quiet here, and even have you agree to a request that you will be quiet. We are quiet people and are cool with that. Thursday evening, someone was hammering in our building below us, most likely in the apartment under renovation, and I was awakened after 10.00 p.m. by loud sweeping right in front of my window. I looked outside and saw one of our landlords loudly sweeping leaves on the sidewalk. It was 1:00 A.M. my body time back east, and was a rude awakening. There is only 1 bath room and the shower is quite small, with 2 small benches not big enough to comfortably sit on. Only half of the shower is glassed in, with the other half covered by a shower curtain. We were overall extremely disappointed & frustrated.

We had a great time at this house. Awesome location right outside of town that was easy to get to with public transportation. Would recommend.

We absolutely loved this place. The only real downfall for us was the steps leading to the first floor. We had my 75 and 80 year old parents with us and didn’t realize you had to climb about 15 stairs to get to the first floor. It was very difficult for my parents. The other thing I would mention is that the only mirror is in the bathroom. That made it difficult for everyone to get ready when there is only one bathroom. The place itself is truly adorable and not too far from the city.
