Calm, Spacious Home in the Heart of Capitol Hill
About
Relax at our peaceful home in beautiful, historic North Capitol Hill. Previously we rented just the guest room, now your friends and family can enjoy the whole place! Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, yet walkable to shops, restaurants, and bars, our home offers a comfortable retreat from the busy city. This three-story townhouse has two bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, a separate office space, full kitchen, dining area, and comfortable living area.
Good to know
Read a book in the library nook overlooking the street. Stroll among the 100-year-old trees on our street that's on the National Register of Historic Places. Travel photos grace the walls all around, while cool colors and rich hardwood floors recite an ode to calm throughout our home. Capitol Hill captures the indie, artistic spirit of Seattle with an endless number of hip blocks to explore. Walk along Broadway Ave to find a variety of restaurants. Some of the best cocktail lounges, bars, and music venues in the city are steps away, as is the light rail with easy access to the airport, stadiums, and downtown. We are avid travelers (over 60 countries!) and try to emulate the great experiences we've had in short term rentals along the way. We hope you're inspired by the space and are so grateful that you're sharing your current adventures with us. Our home has plenty of amenities like dedicated dining space, full kitchen with cookware to prepare family meals, access to a washer/dryer, as well as other conveniences. There is a dedicated office space next to the entrance with a door in case you need to take meetings and make private calls. In addition to a dedicated bathroom for each bedroom, there is a powder room on the main floor. Both bedrooms are located on the second floor and come with new queen beds, lots of natural light, and private bathrooms. You have your own enormous closets. Previous guests have used the closets to hang an entire week's worth of clothes with space to spare. Please be aware that if there are more than four guests, you'll need to set up the aerobed in the living room. We've done this before and folks have been comfortable, but please make sure you're okay with this. We try to make everyone as comfortable as possible, but don't just listen to us. Here are some quotes from previous reviews, received when I was renting out only the guest room (full reviews in my host profile): "If you are ever in Seattle, you MUST stay at Mike's place. It is in the perfect location for exploring all of Seattle and near some of the best restaurants and coffee shops. ." "If you plan on visiting Seattle, you MUST stay at "Mike's Place"!!! It will exceed your expectations (and I'm pretty picky). Extraordinarily clean, comfortable, a great location, and definitely a great 'home away from home'." "Based on the listing I was expecting a great place, but Mike's place exceeded my expectations. There were many details I found thoughtful and very welcoming...I was impressed by Mike's thoughtful, courteous and welcoming nature...Comfortable bed, soft sheets, cozy towels, and plenty of towels and pillows. Very clean and inviting bathroom and bedroom I couldn't have found such luxury for a better price. I am thankful for Mike's attention to detail that made my stay a superb experience." "The room (and the entire townhouse) was immaculately clean — the level of cleanliness you'd expect from a high-end hotel ... It's obvious Mike takes his responsibility as an Airbnb host very seriously, and there were lots of little touches around that made our stay seamless. The comfortable bed made for a great night's sleep!" We strive to provide a top-notch experience for anyone that stays, and although we always try to do better, it's nice to know that some of the efforts are paying off. If you need advice, we are happy to provide suggestions for activities, restaurants, bars, anything you'd like! We're always just a message away. Please make yourself at home; we hope you enjoy the reading area, the fireplace, and the smart tv in the living room.
