The place is clean and it has good space stocked with all the comforts of living. It was nice to have a guide book with instructions as well as suggestions of close-by recommendations for eating. Host is friendly and responsive. The rooftop patio is wonderful, location is safe and entry is easy and safe.

Close to zoo and an awesome patio

We greatly enjoyed this “home base” for our Seattle adventure. Very close walking distance to the zoo and a quiet and pleasant neighborhood. We loved hanging out on the rooftop patio and watching the sunset. Would definitely stay again!

Great Stay!

We were looking for a location close to Ballard but also within a short drive to the Seattle Center area. The guesthouse was perfect for us. We also appreciated the quiet neighborhood. We will certainly re-book when visiting Seattle again!

Perfect Place for Couple

My husband and I stayed here while on vacation and this house was perfectly located for us to be close to family. The neighborhood is quiet and the house is in a great location for walking to restaurants, bars and shops. The rooms are clean and spacious enough for a couple, or 2-3 friends. The rooftop deck is amazing as well. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Guest House in Phinney Ridge

Could not have been happier to stay at the Guesthouse in Phinney Ridge (with a Rooftop Deck)! Deneen was such a a great host..very communicative, checked in a few times, and made the stay even easier. The Guesthouse was easy to access, super clean, and very comfy! Kitchen was more than equipped and there is even a dishwasher, washer, and dryer in the unit. Easy walk to the zoo, coffee, or restaurants (within 12-15min). My wife and I would 100% stay here again!

Perfect Stay!

We came to Seattle for a friend’s wedding weekend, and had the best time staying at this property. The rooftop patio was our sanctuary where we could enjoy an evening sunset or a relaxing afternoon break. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and we walked to a few local coffee shops and restaurants. The place itself was beautiful - exactly like the pictures. It was very well appointed, down to the water in the fridge and the toiletries in the bathroom. Even though there were only two of us, we laid out the king sized sofa bed (which was surprisingly comfortable - we want to buy our own now) to take advantage of a little down time we had. The space was the perfect size for the 2 of us. In addition to the great space, amenities, and location, the hosts were fantastic. Incredibly responsive (despite being out of the country traveling), and even accommodated us checking in early. We will definitely stay here when we come back to Seattle again!

Ideas for upgrades

Keep fenced in walkway clean from slippery areas; almost fell.In kitchen, no coffee maker, electric tea kettle does not work, toaster was filled with crumbs/old bread pieces - doubt it was ever cleaned inside or the debris underneath it. Nothing like making a nice coffee when you get up.Definitely needs a safety bar in the shower…should think of ppl up in age or who may have a disability.Black metal steps marked up the heel on 2 pairs of my shoes.
