THE NEIGHBORHOOD
We're in Hillman City in south Seattle — a walkable, unpretentious pocket of the city with some of the best international food in the region. Seward Park and Lake Washington are a 3-minute drive, Columbia City with its farmers market and local organic grocer is 4 minutes, downtown Seattle is about 14 minutes, and the freeway is 7. Alki Beach is roughly 18 minutes and Pike Place about 17. Bus lines, bike paths and trails are all close by, though we'd recommend a car for exploring the wider area.
PARKING AND ACCESS
One assigned parking stall is yours, with two compact overflow stalls along the fence shared with the upstairs unit, plus free street parking. Entry is through your own private door on the right side of the house — just two steps up from the walkway, with no interior stairs and everything on one level once you're inside.
PETS
We absolutely love furry friends and we know that they're a part of the family. However, we do reserve the right to decline on a case by case basis. We kindly request that you check with us prior to booking and let us know. We ask they stay off the furniture and bedding, and that you scoop the poop—because no one likes surprises in the yard. All pets also need to be house trained.
GOOD TO KNOW
Noise: This is the lower level of a duplex, so there's a unit above you — and we've put real work into making sure that isn't your problem. Our remodel added a sound barrier to the ceiling specifically for this, and in practice most guests hear nothing beyond the occasional footstep. We mention it so there are no surprises.
Security cameras: Exterior cameras monitor the outside perimeter of the house for everyone's safety. There are no cameras inside the unit.
House rules: No parties or events. Quiet hours 10 PM to 6 AM. Primary guest must be 25 or older.
