Nice little home
Located just off 6th avenue, this is a nice little home that kept us comfortable for 10 days. The beds were comfortable and house was well kept. The shower was a bit tight for adults but served the purpose. There is no shower in the master bath which I didn’t pick up on initially when reading the listing. Parking wasn’t an issue as there is space in the alley, but cars or people sometimes block the alley which can be annoying. Owner communicates well. I would have liked a few more amenities for a 10 night stay (limited soap, hair products, laundry, and dishwasher detergent provided) so I ended up buying that for myself. Overall, nice home and I’d stay there again if it fit my schedule.

Overall great property. Heat was a little difficult to regulate if you aren’t used to wall units.

Really great neighbourhood
A really great little house, in a cool neighbourhood! Really quick walk to all the good restaurants & an easy drive to the freeway for Seattle. Close to the Mall. I couldn't recommend it more!

Awesome experience
We loved our spacious and comfortable Harvey House. Easy parking situation, extra large kitchen and nice to have a washer and dryer. Being able to walk to 6th Avenue and a variety of restaurants and shops was a plus. We visited three restaurants and Legendary Doughnuts and never had a bad meal. Thanks for sharing your house with us.

Immaculate, quiet and safe
This small charming house had everything we needed for our 6-night stay. Very nicely furnished and decorated. A short drive to groceries, drugstore, most restaurants, etc. If you're used to urban neighborhood settings, this will suit you well.

Second stay was even better!
The kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner, pasta carbonara, and the remodel they did is gorgeous. The feel of the place is cozy and makes you feel right at home. We love walking to the main street and shopping during the day, so many fun stores within just a few steps.

An amazing stay in a treasure right on 6th
This home is amazing! There is fun history behind it, everything was gorgeously remodeled, and it's the perfect distance from some of the best 6th street has to offer.

Aesthetically pleasing but not as functional as we'd hoped.
Overall, we had a good stay. Because we had booked for five days, though, and we were visiting with friends, we had hoped that the common areas were better designed for gathering and enjoying each other's company. Having one small couch and two chairs that are less for reclining and more for decor, made it difficult to visit with our friends comfortably in one room. The furniture (like the dining room table seats and the shower) was not very inclusive for larger bodies. The house was in a great location and super close to so many things! The check in/check out process were both smooth and easy. The beds were very comfortable and the whole house was extremely clean. Highly recommend if you're staying for a short weekend, as a singular couple, and/or for those in smaller bodies who don't need sturdier furniture/larger spaces.
