Positive:
Beautifully-designed rooms. Spacious main room.
Negative:
The location is the best and worst thing. It is in the center of historic Frankfort which becomes the heart of the party in Friday town concert nights. There is a reason for the white noise machines in the bedrooms.
— Scarlett Saavedra
Positive:
The location was right in the middle of the walking streets /downtown of Frankfort. Parking across the street very easy.
The room itself was great-old brick walls, funky fixtures and a view to an old-school theatre/marquee across the St.
Even got a text while there asking if our car was the one with keys left in it in the garage-soo personal!
Negative:
The ‘speakeasy’ access downstairs was cool but prices were outrageous and we were never given a menu/price list – just a recommendation. Ask for menu card before ordering.

We absolutely loved our stay here—such a wonderful place for a family! Our daughter was completely enchanted by the tree house, which added a magical touch to the whole experience.
As expected with outdoor spaces, there was a bit of dust, but nothing that took away from the charm. The only thing to note is that the parking area can be a little tricky, especially if you’re arriving with two vehicles. We brought a Kia Sportage Plug-in Hybrid and a Honda Accord. Since the charging port is on the passenger side, it was a bit challenging to plug in and still have space to get out of the car. We made it work, though—just a heads-up for anyone in a similar situation.
Overall, a fantastic stay and we’d definitely come back!
— Naomi Rechtin
The area and property are beautiful, peaceful and very safe. Downtown Ballard and numerous, great local restaurants are all short drives away.
The kitchen is a good sized space and was well supplied making cooking easy.
The property manager is great at proactive communication and also very responsive.
There is a good collection of games, books, toys and puzzles. The tree house was a big hit with my granddaughter!
— Kathy Konrad
We had a wonderful stay at this cute boutique hotel. The location is right in the heart of the downtown area and very walkable to restaurants, shops, bars, museums and the Capitol building. The Howser Tavern right downstairs was convenient and delicious. The room was well stocked and clean and we loved the exposed brick interior. The host was very responsive to questions, etc. We highly recommend and would stay here again!
— Trish L
You can’t beat the location of this place! We went on a couples trip to the bourbon trail and wanted to stay somewhere with a lot to do after we visited the distilleries. We were able to visit tons of distilleries within a 25 minute drive and everything in Frankfort is very walkable from the Airbnb! Incredibly convenient place and I highly recommend it!
— Shannon Amick
10 of us stayed at the house for my son’s wedding and it was very comfortable – plenty of room. The house is very private and the gardens are gorgeous. You can stroll along the grounds and even visit some chickens. It rained every day but our last afternoon, but on that sunny day, we all gathered outside and it was lovely.
What I loved the most about the house was the huge amount of space. Even though there were 10 of us, we all had so much space, you felt like you could ‘get away’ if needed. Having two kitchens, especially two fridges was great! The review states there are no spices, which I was worried about, but there were all sorts of spices, including coffee, tea, etc. The kitchen is very well stocked.
The karaoke machine was challenging to get going and it seems to be only in Chinese (this was probably a benefit for the whole group 😉 There was no iron but when I mentioned that, one was delivered. They really need to hang secure curtains in the master bathroom, behind the tub.
— Tonia Ferguson
This house is new, clean, and LOVELY! There were many thoughtful details and high quality items. The views were great, the beds were comfy, the street was quiet, and it’s just a short walk through the neighborhood to the beach. The kitchen, dining area, and living area are perfect for a large group to relax, hang out, cook, and eat together. There is also a garage game room, not shown in the photos, with a foosball table and shuffleboard. We had a great time here!
— Megan Kennedy
We loved our stay at the St. Clair in Frankfort! The host was extremely responsive and the check-in and parking instructions were clear and concise. Our room contained everything we needed and was very quiet. The location was perfect for exploring the local distilleries and just walking around town. We loved the charm of the building and the décor fit perfectly. We are already planning a return trip next year!
— Jeremy B
Positive:
We love the location. Beautiful area. Many things to do within walking distance. Several restaurants, bakeries and bourbon bars. The distilleries are very close as well. The St Clair itself is very comfortable and quiet. The Howser on the ground floor is the best bourbon bar in the area. Patci and crew took care of us every night after our adventures. This was our second trip to the St Clair and we are planning our third already.
Negative:
The only thing that we didn’t like was our unit didn’t have a toaster. Only a slight inconvenience.
— Nickolas Coulter
Positive:
Really well appointed had a washing machine so I did my laundry before leaving (a rack would be helpful) and a well stocked kitchen and was clean and in a great location – I felt safe.
Negative:
I could hear the people above me walking about and the worst was when the people above had a party. When no one was there or when they were keeping normal hours it was fine. The rubbish trucks collect really early!!
— Nicola Bright
Had a great stay. A perfect place for an extended family gathering. A beautiful home. Very clean. Kitchen was nicely stocked. Rooms are spacious and beds comfortable. Host communicated well. The main floor bedroom perfect for our elderly Dad. Worked out very well. The beach is a short walk and the views from the house are beautiful. Enjoyed seeing some deer and also a bald eagle!
— Jeff Laug
This hotel was wonderful! Very peaceful and made a perfect central spot for our tours on the Bourbon Trail. They were very responsive with any questions we had but gave easy to follow instructions for parking and check in/out. Room was clean and had exactly what was described in the listing. Very comfortable spot and would be happy to stay here again if we are back in the area!
— Katie Colson
Overall, the neighborhood was cute and the house is very close to a great coffee shop and some delicious restaurants. You’re very close to the city but it doesn’t feel like it. The neighborhood is quiet and cozy. (Side note, if you’re conservative be prepared — Seattle is VERY progressive and not afraid to show it.) The house itself has some quirks of an older house but was enjoyable overall. Parking can sometimes be an issue and not all of the listed amenities were available, for example a coffee machine. The hosts were responsive but I didn’t always get the feeling like they wanted to actually help. Positive experience overall but some things could be improved.
— Monique Reed
STUNNING PROPERTY WITH AMAZING VIEWS!
This was a last minute booking and booked late in the day. There was a bit of confusion when I arrived but it was cleared up pretty quickly and wasn’t anything that was that was super inconvenient. The property was absolutely immaculate when I was finally able to check in. Everything was exactly as described! Although I was staying on my own and the property has the room to accommodate more than several people comfortably, I felt like I was able to enjoy everything that the property had to offer. I originally had wanted to book for two nights and at the time of booking was only able to book one night. Due to the issue when I had first arrived to check in, Airbnb was able to get me an approval for a second night along with a discount on the price. Airbnb also provided me with a $50 credit for my dinner that night. I would recommend this property to anyone who is planning a trip to Westport! You seriously won’t regret it! I’ll definitely be back!
— Julie Williams
This stay was perfect for a couples getaway with friends to explore Frankfort and surrounding areas for all the whiskey distilleries! We were very pleased with the location and loved walking around the square for dinners and etc. We highly recommend this place to friends and others!
— Jessica Hissam
This house was by far the roomiest house we have booked. We thoroughly enjoyed our quality family time spent here. We made sure to block off a day or two just to enjoy the house (lots of games downstairs) and the property (the fire pit, cows right outside, and walking trail). There is beautiful scenery from just about every window. The recommendation for a local coffee shop was very much appreciated! (Apothecary Coffee is a must for anyone in the Sedro-Woolley area.)
We were a short drive from the “city” and near family we were visiting, but enjoyed every bit of peaceful quietness we had during our stay. We would definitely book again next time we are in Washington.
— Todd Mccall
This a very nice, relatively new unit that has a very clean lay out, is well equipped, and is in a good neighborhood. The manager of this unit is very accessible and responsive. He was quick to deal with some early issues we had upon arrival. Access to the unit is through the alley, not the main street. It is easy to unload in the alley then park on the main street. We stayed for 1 week and overall had a very good experience.
— Burton Jones
Das St Clair ist eine sehr schöne Unterkunft mitten im alten Frankfort. Die Wohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet und zentral gelegen. An Wochenenden etwas lauter, da unterhalb ein paar Kneipen sind aber unsere Schlafräume lagen etwas mehr nach hinten versetzt, somit kein Problem.
Wir kommen gerne wieder.
— Ulrike Frauendorf
Excellent communication
Super host Marisa
We had a very relaxing stay and enjoyed all the outdoor activities offered near by
Strongly recommend this spot😁
— Francois Thibault
We loved staying at Goat Ridge. The house is beautiful and it has a great view through magnificent sliding glass doors. The deck is large and works very well for outdoor dining. The modern architecture is very striking and was a fun aspect to our stay. The kids loved the bunkbed room downstairs.
— James Little
Our Merry Band of Travelers 🧳 loved our stay. Host was very responsive. We needed extra linens & coffee and we received them right away. The location is PERFECT!! Right in the middle of where we wanted to be to start & end our adventure. We parked our car in the garage space & didn’t return to it until we were ready to leave town. The suite was cozy relaxing & big enough for the 4 of us. Thank you St Clair & thank you Frankfort!! Another great experience for Merry Band!
— Jeri McDonogh
Great place to stay in Frankfort, especially if you’re doing any of the distillery tours. There’s lots of cool places within walking distance (coffee, bars, restaurants, etc), and we loved how easy and convenient checking in/leaving was. We will definitely be staying here again on our next trip down.
— Clayton Westercamp
Positive:
You really cannot beat this location. Center City is unbelievably dense with world class eateries, nightlife, culture, green space, and HISTORY. One Sky Loft is surrounded by public transportation options. It's only a few blocks from the subway and buses stop right outside the property. Getting around the city is a breeze. As for the interior, everything inside is sleek and modern. The water pressure in the shower is something out of a five-star spa experience! The bed was comfy and the ambient temperature was easy to control. I read a few reviews suggesting they beef up the internet and add an iron. It seems those issues have since been addressed. Communication with the team is prompt and getting in and out of the building is straightforward. The design of the apartment is functional and lovely; I may steal a few ideas for my own home. All in all, we had a wonderful stay. It's not every property you leave thinking, mannn… I could live here.
Negative:
I used to live directly across from Penn Hospital, so I'm used to the noise of ambulances and what not. But man, on the second floor you are really in it. Some better soundproofing on the windows would make for a more comfortable experience. That "loft" window or whatever in the bedroom is totally aesthetic and not functional. A solid wall would help close off some of the noise while you are trying to sleep. Maybe even some plexiglass to let in light but not feel like people on the street are inside your apartment lol I feel like they shot themselves in the foot with this design aspect. It looks nice until you're woken up with a political protest that sounds like it's coming from your living room. Also, please get a real sign for the front door and add yourselves to google maps. Had me suspicious at first…
— Grant Porter
This is a great spot just outside of the town Sedro Woolley, it’s about 20 minutes off interstate I-5. We comfortable slept a large group and there is plenty of space for air mattresses. The layout of the house makes it feel like an upscale lodge resort. The property itself it’s secluded and a bit off the beaten trail. There is a pond and view from the front porch. The kitchen is capable of hosting large groups and is easily cleaned. I will be renting again!
— Riley Embly
The house is very roomy and comfortable. Great coffeehouse around the corner. Good restaurants nearby on Fremont Avenue as well as several others within a five minute drive.Easy drive to the city center.
The home is well-furnished and has good quality linens in the bedrooms and bathrooms. This would be a great house for a long stay.
Thanks to the Recreation team for their support.
— Noel Sharpe
This rental is in a perfect location for visiting Seattle. Walkable to coffee shops, restaurants, breweries, and on a quiet street. We especially loved the nearby coffee shop. Check-in was a breeze. The house is large with a great layout, yard, and deck, and even with a little bit of a view. It’s also close to highways that get you downtown in minutes.
There are a couple of things that future guests should know, however. If you want to use the kitchen, know that there are no seasonings (even S/P – though we bought and left some). There were no coffee filters (we bought and left some). Also, the kitchen faucet is touch-sensitive and may shut off if accidentally touched after on.
Having said all that, the positives far out-weigh the negatives, and we’d gladly stay there again.
— Jonathan Conklin
Positive:
Great location in the middle of everything you might want to do. Parking garage was free and across the street. Very rustic vibe and very spacious. Check-in process was simple and on the phone. Staff that we did run into at the bar were incredibly friendly. Fun to enter its own speakeasy.
Negative:
Our room was over the bar and so it was pretty noisy until the bar closed. Fine if you are out all night enjoying the sights and sounds but not when you are in the room trying to relax. Also a earlier check-out time than most places so be prepared in your plans for that.
— Kaj Holm
Beautiful place with stunning views. The house is well-equipped and even stocked with some interesting books, which was a pleasant surprise. A peaceful retreat, perfect for unwinding and relaxing.
— Remco Kornet
Very nice room in a cool boutique hotel type setting. we enjoyed our stay and there are lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance. The bar and speakeasy that is downstairs is definitely worth going to. The only thing that was a little negative for me was that you could here people walking around in the room above you because the floors are very old and creaky. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would come back.
— Keith Dowdy
We loved staying at this house! The enclosed back yard was perfect for our dog. The house is also really close to Milburn Park and a lot of tasty restaurants. The host was extremely responsive. You’ll get a reply within 10 minutes. Loved the house. Very spacious. The kitchen was awesome. There were TVs in every bedroom which was cool. The tub in the master bathroom is a really cool feature as well. We will be staying there again in the future and highly recommend staying there to anyone interested.
