We were very comfortable. The whole house felt very well-stocked, from the full range of kitchen appliances to the mini-toiletries in the bathroom. The kids loft was a huge hit with our five year old!

Cute place and my family loved it overall. Blazing Bagels is right next door and we loved eating breakfast there. A bike/walking trail is also very close by which we also enjoyed for morning walks. Only downside was a lack of A/C on first floor where we slept. Not sure if there actually was A/C or if it just didn’t work. Upstairs had a window unit which kept that level cool. We had some very hot days during our stay so it made sleeping at night a little uncomfortable. Still a wonderful experience overall and we would stay here again.

Great Vacation - Home Away From Home
The house was nice and very well kept. The beds were comfortable, and the rooms fit our needs. We didn't cook there so not much to say on the kitchen other than the layout was nice. The hot water heater had a hard time keeping up with the 4 of us, so we had to space out showers to accommodate accordingly. There seem to only be AC upstairs in the living area, so we slept with the windows open since it was a great temperature while we were there. The cars packed on the street made it difficult at times to get in and out of the driveway but having the driveway to park at the door was very nice. The location was great and made it quick and easy to get to all the things downtown. I would recommend staying her as your home away from home for a vacation.

College visits
My daughter and I were in Seattle to visit friends at UW and to check out its campus and SPU for her next steps in her education. We had a great time.
Parking was convenient in the driveway, the house was clean, had a nice decor. The location of the property is convenient for UW, walking distance to U Village.

Clean property in a great location
We loved the Yeti Hut! It was clean and very organized. Kitchen had everything we needed for our long weekend. The double shower setup in the lower level bathroom was very clever and convenient. Bri was very quick to reply to messages and answer questions. Check out was very easy. Will look to stay here again when we come back to UW!
