Hi Alex, I really enjoyed exploring the community garden half a block from your house. We also did the 15 min walk to Lake Washington and enjoyed jumping off the dock into the cool water. Our 9 year old loved it. The suite was very clean and the beds were so comfy. Jen

This place was great and totally as advertised. The neighborhood was beautiful and walkable if you don't mind a few hills. Close to the train or a short Uber/Lyft to downtown if you prefer. The kitchen was very well stocked and the bed was super comfortable. Alex was a pleasure to work with. We will definitely be back!!

Wonderful Visit at the Mt. Baker Guest House

My 93-year-old aunt said it was an extremely well-stocked kitchen. Very comfortable bed. Everything is clean and orderly. She loved the book selection. She liked the guest house enough that she thought when she came back to Seattle again from Baltimore, she would stay there. Thank you Alex and Harry!!

Good fortune to find such a lovely, comfortable place to stay while my husband was inpatient at a Seattle medical center. The interior is very well done and was just perfect for me. Felt safe. Hosts were available and very kind. I'll remember this site for future stays in Seattle.

We enjoyed our stay at the guest house. It's actually a portion of the house converted into a morher-in-law suite with everything needed for a comfortable stay. All the essentials were included, which was super great! The place is small but roomy enough for two people. The location is great, and we enjoyed walking around the neighborhood.

Blue Jays in Seattle

We came down for the Mariners games and a 5 night stay. The place was awesome. Super clean and had all the amenities of home. Harry and Alex were awesome hosts and met us when we arrived. They had lots of great tips for transit, restaurants, and parks for the kids. We drove to the Mt. Baker light rail and took the link to the stadium and for sight seeing in the city. The kids loved Colman Beach for swimming on our down time. Thanks for the great experience of Seattle Alex and Harry. Definitely recommend this place!
