We enjoyed our stay. However, the TV was unusable because it could not connect to the WiFi network and the living room wall heater was pretty noisy. Otherwise, it was fantastic. :)

Great stay in Seattle
Visiting friends in Seattle for a week. Great location to buzz around the city. We love Metro Market for groceries and enjoyed running on the Burke. Easy to get downtown to Pike Place, stadiums, and local parks. Clean and comfortable house. Great home base! Appreciated the washer and dryer and the window air conditioner units in bedrooms during hot days.

Cute, close to UW property
We enjoyed our stay. Property was very cute, clean, and fit the description. All amenities were included as listed. The only concern was the busy street outside the front door and having a toddler that caused us some concern. The street noise wasn’t too much of an issue surprisingly. My suggestion is if you are staying here with babies, toddlers, and/or small children; I would suggest bringing a traveler deadbolt safety lock to ensure children don’t wander near the busy road.

Disappointing experience but cute house
Our main issue was that the cleanliness of the property was not as advertised. There was extensive mold on the shower curtain liner, dried food was on multiple kitchen pans/utensils, and I had to pick up other people's pet waste. The source of the mold on the shower curtain liner was due to the fact that the bathtub did not drain appropriately and also that the tub spout/faucet was broken. Our host was initially very responsive. He did send a new shower curtain liner via Amazon but I had to dispose of the moldy curtain myself and install the new one. Then, when we were trying to plan for him to come fix the bathtub, he ghosted us for almost 36 hours, despite me asking more than once if he was still planning to stop by. He eventually responded and we settled on a time for him to come over. He was unable to fix it himself so had to hire a plumber, which he did do immediately. Overall, it was a disappointing stay for the amount we paid for this VRBO but on the upside, the layout of the house is cute, the furniture was comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked.

The location related to Seattle children’s hospital was great. Very walkable, even in midwinter. The house was great, and easy with a 1 year old. The host was very helpful when we had to change our checkout date.

Perfect Getaway
This was our second stay at mellow yellow. Ariaan is very responsive to any needs/concerns. The home is clean and well equipped. It is in a great location and I love that we can easily access the Burke-Gilman trail from it. We have stayed here to visit our kids who live nearby.

Great location
This cute litte house is in a great neighborhood right next to a wonderful grocery store with the most amazing chocolate chip cookes made fresh all day long. It's right along the Burke-Gilman bike path which takes you to restaurants and even to the large University Mall. All good. Best for us may have been having a washer-dryer.
