Mediterranean Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful view of the city on the rooftop."

Refined Wallingford Craftsman • Perfect Family Retreat near Parks, Zoo & UW

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely charming craftsman home with terrific walkability. We appreciated how well-stocked and outfitted the kitchen was. The home owner was remarkably communicative leading up to and throughout our stay. We'll definitely try to stay here again when next in Seattle!"

Boutique Chic Garden Retreat a Fremont Oasis w/ a BBQ, fire pit & outdoor dining

10/10 Excellent

"This was a very charming house with a lot of really helpful amenities in the kitchen to make us feel really at home. Alicia was very communicative, and it was very easy to get in and out of the rental and access all the perks to the space."

Comfortable 2-bedroom, 2 decks, walking neighborhood, & minutes to downtown.

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a wonderful property- clean, cozy and charming. It was great to sit on the front porch on a warm afternoon. Two negatives. There is an apartment below, which I didn’t pick up from the listing. However except for one night when there was a party (not too loud or too late), there was no disturbance. The other was a very inappropriate and offensive political button in one drawer of the dresser. I don’t know if it belonged to the owner or a prior occupant, but, either way, it should have been removed before we arrived."
