IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
- Please note that the building is a two-level house, and the "Judkins Basement Suite Near Downtown & Light Rail" listing refers to the accommodations located in the basement (Downstairs Unit). Although the front entrance is shared, guests enter the Unit through a keyed private door. There is an additional bookable vacation rental on-site in the completely separate space upstairs. Guests do not need to share any interior amenities. The front sundeck is shared and other travelers may be present during your stay. The house has a typical split-entry residential layout, and the walls are not soundproofed, so normal everyday sounds (voices, footsteps, or doors closing) may be heard from time to time. Noises from the surrounding rooms or the Upstairs Unit tend to be audible as well.
- We host a variety of guests—from families and groups reserving the entire place to individual travelers booking private rooms. You will notice key lockboxes and posted signs across the property. While this setup is unique, it is intentionally designed to provide flexibility while maintaining privacy and security. Each bedroom has its own keyed entry, which many guests appreciate depending on their booking style.
- Although the property is located near Seattle’s Link light rail line, it sits high enough to prevent any noises coming from the trains running through the tunnel.
