Very clean, had all the supplies we needed for a week in Seattle. Unbeatable location next to Alki beach. Can sit in the living room and watch the ferries and boats go by.
Beautiful place!! We loved the area and the home was very comfortable. This was our first trip to Seattle and we enjoyed the location of this rental. We walked to nearby restaurants and coffee shops. The view is amazing!
The kitchen is nicely equipped. Things are new and very clean. The host was very attentive and responsive. Beds comfortable, seating adequate. Given how populated and busy the area is it was amazingly quiet. All in all a really nice, peaceful place to stay. Highly recommended.
The view from our apartment was lovely. Couldn't imagine being in seattle in the winter without one. The host thought of everything you would need. The kitchen was fully equipped with good quailty cookware and dishes. The heating system worked like a champ. We were warm and cozy throughout our stay. I also really enjoyed how the place was decorated. The bed was super comfortable. There was no skimping anywhere. I would definately stay there again.
The property was very clean and met all our needs, we were pleasantly surprised that there were laundry accommodations! The host provided easy instructions upon arrival/exit. Perfect location and beautiful atmosphere for our stay! I would recommend this property and we would stay there again! Thank you!

Beautiful place, not family friendly
We were looking for a cute apartment and a fun location to visit local family for my husband’s 39 birthday. This place that had 2 bedrooms, a bathtub, and a nice dining table that seats at least 6 people. We were impressed with the cleanliness, the view, and the attention to detail. We had a wonderful time on the beach with our son followed by an evening with our local family where we made dinner and played bananagrams. They left by 10. Unfortunately, it took a turn on Sunday when the property manager arrived. She let us know there were noise complaints from our unit the entire weekend. She said she arrived at the unit and counted the shoes in the doorway which equaled 8 pairs. This is accurate because we had 3 couples over including us. She said that social gatherings were not allowed and that this was listed in the rules. She was also very unkind to my husband and did not introduce herself. We had all of our belongings out of the apartment (before 11) and he was taking the time to clean and reset the place. Upon reviewing the rules (of which I took screen shots) social gatherings were not banned. The rules said “no events” but we assumed this meant weddings or bachelor parties. Not a dinner with a few friends and family. As we got complaints about daytime noise, I can only assume they were in reference to our toddler who played with toys, cried and did other toddler things. I would not recommend this place if you are visiting family or have children.
