House Rules -
No Shoe Policy.
Please bring house slippers or socks if you are more comfortable. We do
offer slippers for those who forget. With our well known wet weather,
Seattleites are accustomed to taking off wet/dirty shoes at the door.
It helps keep our home clean for all guests to enjoy. And you just
might like the cozy and relaxed atmosphere it brings. Mahalo and
Arigato.
Kitchen. We welcome you to use our kitchen. We are a small operation and therefore we cannot offer maid service for the kitchen privileges. To keep everything running smoothly please consider the following guidelines: If you use the kitchen to prepare food, please leave it the way you found it. Including, but not limited to, putting dishes in dishwasher, washing pots & pans and putting them away, wiping down counters or any soiled surfaces. In consideration for the guest in rooms located near the kitchen, we have a very strict policy regarding the kitchen hours. We restrict all access to the kitchen area between the hours 10pm and 7:30 am. This includes coming and going through the kitchen door after hours. We appreciate you consideration for our home and for your fellow travelers.
Bathrooms.
There are five shared bathrooms in the home. Feel free to use any
bathroom that is open. Please do not leave personal hygiene items in
the bathroom shower stalls or counters. You are welcome to use the
drawers and cabinets for personal items. Unfortunately we all shed, so
please wipe up your hair from vanity and floor when done using bathroom.
Lost keys. $25 dollar replacement fee.
Parking.
Our parking lot is on first come first serve basis and is for paying,
registered guests only. If you have visitors they must park on the
street.
Damages.
You are expected to leave your room in as good a condition as it was
given to you. Any damage caused by you to our home inside or outside of
your room such as carpet stains, soiled furnishings, broken windows or
appliances will be replaced or cleaned and billed to you.
Repairs.
We reserve the right to inspect your room with 24 hour advance notice.
We reserve the right to enter it at anytime to make repairs in the
event of an emergency.
No Smoking, candles or incense allowed on the property. You will be asked to vacate the property if these rules are not followed.
Children.
Let me preface this policy by admitting that we are the proud parents
of small children. Infants
and toddlers outside of their normal routines at home can be
surprisingly restless and disrupt the Bed & Breakfast experience
expected by most guests. Because the guest house is a house and not built with sound proofing like hotel rooms, sound does travel. We
want everyone to enjoy their experience without those awkward moments
at breakfast after a sleepless night for the entire house. Please use your best judgment with your child and their abilities. We are happy to assist you with selecting the best room options for children. Our laundry
facility is offered to clean any soiled bedding or for an additional
service charge of $20 we will provide this service for you.
Pet Policy.
We offer accommodations for guests traveling with dogs, 20 lbs. or
less, on the lower level of the House. At no time do we allow
pets to be left in the room while you are away from the house. They are
welcome to accompany you anywhere in our home. Just as we would charge
any additional guests, there is a $10 per night charge. We provide pet
beds or pet blankets so your four legged pal may join you on your bed.
Guest assumes all responsibility for damages and or additional cleaning
necessary. Please call directly for pet reservations; we limit
reservations to one pet at a time in the house. Unfortunately we can not accommodate cats due the common allergy of many guests.
Housekeeping. Our
housekeepers clean all of the common areas twice weekly. If
you are a long term guest on a monthly rate, you are responsible for
cleaning your own room including linens and towels furnished to you.
You will find cleaning supplies in the kitchen closet and the laundry room.
