Water View Home

We LOVE that the host has the basic needs for that ALL important first night: snacks and wine :-) plus coffee or tea for the next morning. There is a desk in the bedroom and small rugs on both sides of the bed. The kitchen is well equipped for the cook or baker in the family.

things that the host cannot control: it's Seattle...... so every location is expensive. this place is priced well for being JUST outside of Seattle and the traffic! Going south, its posted 25 mph up to just before the address, BUT NO ONE heeds that and will 'ride your bumper'.

the location is great! it's close to South center mall, SeaTac airport, and both freeways: I-5 and 405. Ray is a wonderful host! the house is super clean and supplied with more than just the cooking basics. it's nice to arrive and have a bottle of wine waiting for us the evening of our arrival and be able to make coffee the first morning. Ray keeps a binder of local eateries, has maps of the area, and board games in the closet.

if a small rug could be placed on the window side of the bed, it would great! The floor is cold on that side of the bed. I think adding to the binder information about recycling and where the trash goes outside.

Big and beautiful, you will find most of what you need in. The owner Ray is exceptionally helpful.

You need to have a car for your movement, otherwise you will have to have taxi

Central location to downtown, the airport, Tacoma and many other points of interest. Also the views of Lake Washington with access to to waters edge being right across the street.

The street in front (Rainier Ave S.) is a medium to high traffic street, with traffic traveling at speeds over the posted speed limit, sometimes made it difficult to get out. This is out of the owners control but was our only blemish to our stay.

Location updated appliances and housing and especially the owner Ray.

Wish we could have stayed longer

well remodeled, very clean and quiet. Great host! went above and beyond!

The host was helpful, friendly, flexible and readily available. The property far exceeded our expectations! He had thought of everything! The views were beautiful - we saw bald eagles! There were games available. The kitchen was fully stocked. There were laundry facilities which was a welcome surprise.

Nothing!
