1950 time capsule

Check in was easy, know problem.Place was perfect for our needs in Yakima.

The house was a fun place with a cool retro vibe. Old magazines, records, reel-to-reel tapes, and a kitchen that reminded me of my grandparents. While nostalgic and fun to explore, it also had updated amenities like WiFi, TV, microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher. Great communication with the host who was friendly and helpful. A few notes for future guests: Most of the power outlets are the old two prong, be sure to bring a ground lift adaptor if you need it (there are three prong outlets available in the living room and kitchen, just not in the bedrooms) The downstairs is a separate rental, and while we didn't have any issues with the other renters, you could hear them a bit when one of them had several sneezes in the evening. We also received a food delivery that was intended for them, but I was able to catch the delivery person before they drove away...hopefully that got all sorted out. We didn't know how to contact them or find the entrance to the downstairs area. No on-site laundry, pack accordingly. For us it was a fun, short stay in a nice Yakima neighborhood near restaurants, family and groceries.

The place was clean and everything was super easy. We would definitely come again and recommend it to anyone.

It was like a museum. We loved it. Don’t change a thing!

Really enjoyed the house. Lots of original features and terrific location with amazing panoramic views!

A few issues- but nothing too serious. Bed was comfy. Kitchen is adorable. Owner very communicative.

There is not washer/dryer here, and the HVac vents are direct avenues for the guests on the lower level. We could hear everything they said, and I'm sure they could hear everything we said. It was a little unnerving. The quiet hours for the house are necessary for this reason. If it weren't for the great location, amazing views and super cute 1950's period decoration I would give the place a lower rating. I really don't know why we don't make houses like this anymore.

The property was easy to find, the neighborhood was quiet. It had a very nice view from the living room. It was fun to see how space was utilized back in the day. Lots of nooks and crannies to explore.

The outside of the house is very overgrown and in need of repair, it will make you wonder what you’ve signed up for. The inside was cute and clean. The kitchen is stocked ok with lots of pans but very dull knives. *****The host on the other hand, was very difficult to communicate with!!! I highly recommend you take before and after pictures of the white furniture to prove zero damage because the host is 100% worried that you will damage the furniture!! If I could give zero stars, I would!!!*****
