The room was good and the small day bed in room 103 was super comfy. The keyless entry was really horrible though and a pain to deal with. Also, it would be nice to receive check in instructions and car/parking information the day before check in. Cars needed to be 18' or less and I brought my truck. Luckily I got it into the spot without blocking the alley but it would have been nice to know ahead of time.

Unfortunately I was not able to access my room in a timely manner, my party and I found a hotel elsewhere due to the uncertainty we faced. I was unable to access my room upon arrival and for quite a while afterwards. I did not receive communication via text when I was in contact with the phone number provided and did not receive an email back in that time. My call logs do not reflect an attempt to get into contact with me despite my attempts to reach out. Due to the significant inconvenience we faced I tried to contact the owner to ask for a refund for the troubles we experienced but two days later I have not heard from them. Would not recommend this property due to the uncertain we faced and difficulty with communication.

Our stay was flawless and very easy! First and foremost, the communication was incredible. Clear instructions for how to get there, where the parking was, and how to access the rooms. They were also very quick to respond. I had some questions and heard back quickly each time. Accessing the rooms was easy! There were no on-site staff members to help but it’s not needed. You download the app and have access to your room through your phone. The rooms were very clean and fun, too! It’s built out in a massive house and they’ve done a great job. Very much separate like a hotel, but unique layout like a home. Best of both worlds. They even let us have a late checkout which was extremely helpful and I’m thankful it worked out with timing. We’ll be back!!

This property was a hidden gem. I needed to stay close to Swedish Hospital and the location was perfect. Walkable area with plenty of restaurants. For the price, you have a very safe and clean place to stay. Loved the charm and artwork .

Could be better

I would've give 4 starts but the lack of cleaning. It dropped to 2. The installations are not bad, the room is small but is enough to stay the night, it has it's own bathroom. Going back to the cleaning part, as soon as we step in into the room, there was a horrible odor, like if we were walking into a bedroom of someone that lacks of personal hygiene. I'm not a clean psyco person but this is how bad it was. I checked the sheets and blanket to see if the odor was coming from there, and it wasn't. But there were long hairs of different colors all over the blanket, which made me think how many people has used this blanket before it was washed Even though the sheets were white after checking them closely, it seems like they were used several times before putting them in the laundry machine, outrageous! One of the pillows smelled horrible. I would have preferred a thousand times a more humble suite with everyday 100% cleanliness than this.

Never Again

The small space was nice but there were a lot of misses. It was freezing, and even with the heater cranked up to 83 it still felt extremely cold. The bathroom has no door, just an old curtain. The bathroom FLOORS were absolutely miserable to walk on as they felt like solid ice even with socks. The towels were tiny, and the towel warmer barely worked. Having a large looking bed that is just two smaller beds pushed together really made for an uncomfortable sleep. The neighborhood seemed alright but with the street parking in view of the hotel, my car was broken into for the first time in my many Seattle stays. All for a small blanket. The establishment has NO cameras. As close as it is the the hospital I needed to visit, I will never stay here again.
