I dont have credit card, so i couldnt syay, and they refused to refund my money. ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ashley Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Communication #### Terrible experience Prior to arriving, there were no photos of the outside of the house and no instructions for WHERE to enter the house. I arrived by uber from the airport, and I initially walked up the stairs to the front entrance. The stairs were overgrown with thorny bushes and it was hard to walk up and hurt my feet/ankles because of the thorns. Prior to arriving, the owners sent multiple texts/emails with links and instructions about using a keypad to get in. There was no keypad on the front door. So I then went to the side door where there was a keypad. The code I was given did not work, so I contacted the owner. I sent photos of the keypad and videos of me pulling the door closed as instructed. The owner gave me a second code that did not work, and then asked if I was at the right house (though my photos and videos should have indicated if I was at the right place). I spent 30 minutes in the 90° heat, unable to get inside while going back and forth with the owner. I was about to call another uber to take me to a hotel, when finally the owner informed me there was another entrance in the back by the trash cans! In the back there were 2 more doors with keypads I tried each one, figured out which one the code worked on and then the door still didn’t open because I had to put it and push hard because it gets stuck. Once inside it was sweltering hot because the AC wasn’t even turned on! It was horrible. The owner’s only response was “thank you for letting me know” ![Thorny path to a front door you can’t enter ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98def311-e62d-4aa2-83e4-72375aa70c13-1754049795119.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f0e264c8-f12b-4164-95ac-8ac5dfe09d1c-1754049794389.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Old tub with rust spots on the bottom](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1daaf751-d06c-43df-a52f-feebc32909cd-1754049794864.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Janky hardware on tub](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/99dd981d-a5a3-42ce-adb2-2fb07de06ac5-1754049794349.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ashley Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Perch - Marion Manor 16: Modern Townhome 10 mins from Seattle U & Swedish](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Perch-Marion-Manor-16-Modern-Townhome-10-Mins-From-Seattle-U-Swedish.h74295248.Hotel-Information) > > [Judkins Retreat (Close to Downtown)](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Judkins-Guesthouse-Close-To-Downtown.h100362013.Hotel-Information) > > [Swinomish Casino & Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Mount-Vernon-Hotels-Swinomish-Casino-Lodge.h4868894.Hotel-Information) > > [Cedar Cabin @ Rainier-Hot tub-AC-WiFi](https://www.expedia.ca/Ashford-Hotels-Eco-Friendly-Tiny-Home-Steps-Away-From-Mt-Rainier.h85025997.Hotel-Information) > > [Seattle Gaslight Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Gaslight-Inn.h1159116.Hotel-Information) > > [Perch - Ruby Lodge: Cozy Cabin w/ Hot Tub & King bed | Pet Friendly](https://www.expedia.ca/Ashford-Hotels-Perch-Ruby-Lodge-Cozy-Cabin-W-Hot-Tub-King-Bed-Pet-Friendly.h70965952.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Inn Kirkland](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Comfort-Inn.h67109.Hotel-Information) > > [Tacoma Tiny House](https://www.expedia.ca/Tacoma-Hotels-Tacoma-Tiny-House.h90728696.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Seattle/Bothell](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Seattle-Bothell.h3145304.Hotel-Information) > > [Skybridge Seattle Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Seattle-Airport.h16164.Hotel-Information) > > [The Edgewater Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-The-Edgewater-Hotel.h11133.Hotel-Information) > > [The Canterbury Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Aberdeen-Hotels-The-Canterbury-Inn.h2232411.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Spokane Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Spokane-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Spokane.h45348723.Hotel-Information) > > [Top of Tacoma Flat Unit 1](https://www.expedia.ca/Tacoma-Hotels-Beautiful-Downtown-Tacoma-Home-Unit-1.h89142305.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Inn & Suites Everett](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Quality-Inn-And-Suites-Everett.h1047755.Hotel-Information) > > [Seatac Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Seatac-Inn-And-Airport-Parking.h5005.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Leavenworth-Hotels-Bavarian-Lodge.h10071694.Hotel-Information) > > [Tacoma Homestay](https://www.expedia.ca/Tacoma-Hotels-Tacoma-Homestay.h101077985.Hotel-Information) > > [The Moore Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-The-Moore-Hotel.h1585072.Hotel-Information) > > [LOGE Leavenworth](https://www.expedia.ca/Wenatchee-Lake-Chelan-Hotels-LOGE-Leavenworth-Downtown.h57234352.Hotel-Information) > > [Extended Stay America Suites Seattle Redmond](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Extended-Stay-America-Suites-Seattle-Redmond.h119242.Hotel-Information) > > [Kasa The Oxford Seattle](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Kasa-The-Oxford-Seattle.h57698380.Hotel-Information) > > [Level Seattle Downtown - South Lake Union](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Level-Seattle-South-Lake-Union.h71964518.Hotel-Information) > > [Executive Residency by Best Western Navigator Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Navigator-Inn-Suites.h327201.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury studio apartment in the heart of downtown Tacoma](https://www.expedia.ca/Tacoma-Hotels-Luxury-Studio-Apartment-In-The-Heart-Of-Downtown-Tacoma.h89516232.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Seattle University District](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Seattle-University-District.h10621943.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Breeze Cottages](https://www.expedia.ca/Aberdeen-Hotels-Sea-Breeze-Cottages.h27577882.Hotel-Information) > > [Domicile Suites at Soma Towers](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Domicile-Suites-At-Soma-Towers.h45500801.Hotel-Information)
