Downtown and the stadiums are about a 20 minute drive, and a nearby bus line offers direct access into Seattle, including trips for the 2026World Cup.

    Small but efficient ADU. Nicely decorated and supplied. Comfortable bed. Nice deck and fire pit area - but Seattle weather didn’t cooperate. Nice coffee shop a short walk away.

    My sister had an absolutely terrific stay at this property and enjoyed it very much. She said it was super comfortable, especially the bed, and that she also really enjoyed the outside area hanging out in the little backyard. She would definitely stay here again and also said the host was very lovely.Hang out in the little backyard

    Just enough space for what we needed; cozy and comfortable inside, with lots of outdoor hangout options even in the small private yard. The bed was very comfortable and we slept great. It was easy to control the climate. The kitchenette was well stocked had all the basics to get us started. The quiet neighborhood has a coffee shop (good baked goods!) and small restaurant in walking distance (other end of the block), too.

    The cottage was everything we needed for our stay. Quiet, comfortable, good local food within walking distance. It's also on a direct route to downtown without hitting any tollroads. Easy drive from the airport as well. Gian is a great host, we won't hesitate to use this spot on a future trip.
