Other things to note
PLEASE NOTE:

> We do not offer cooking condiments but you are welcome to buy anything you need from a nearby grocery store.

> We utilize the triple sheet methods for all our beds, which means we do not usually use fitted sheets or duvet covers. This ensures all your linens are fresh and clean (you might be surprised to know that without the triple sheet system, some hotels/hostels actually do not change their duvet covers!)

> The basic pricing per night is for 4 guests. Each additional guest requires $25 per person per night. The additional guest fee goes toward accommodation necessities such as utilities, supplies, and tears and wears on the property. VRBO should automatically calculate the accurate nightly pricing for you according to the number of guests inputted under "guests".

> Pets are allowed! Please note that we charge $150/pet per stay.

> We are also located close to a greenbelt/neighbors' backyard. During rainy seasons, you may find some ants and insects seeking shelter from the rain! Our properties have routine pest control services but please take note of this as a minor FYI for what we cannot control.

> If you book within 24 hours of check in, please note that we may not be able to guarantee a 4pm check-in depending on our cleaning team’s schedule and if there is a same-day turnover (it may be delayed up to 6.30pm). Please check with us after booking to confirm your check in time.

What makes this property unique

This house is truly unique, nestled in the heart of Capitol Hill on what was once known as “Millionaires’ Row.” This historic area was home to shipyard, lumberyard, and real estate moguls. The house itself carries a rich legacy, having been built by the Skinner family—pioneers who were among the first owners of the Space Needle and the Seattle Seahawks. Originally constructed as a private residence for the Skinner family’s unmarried daughter, this home combines both history and charm, offering a one-of-a-kind stay in a truly remarkable location.
