"The location is great, Vince was very kind and communicative,"

Palpatine Sith Lord Suite

8/10 Good

"It was amazing thanks so much for the stay best show of my life I love Seattle and hopefully would love to book again met some amazing people while there and a great couple who stayed in your sweet who also went to the show."

Yoda's Swamp Suite

8/10 Good

"Great place to stay, I would not recommend if you have knee-problems are old age, because this place has stairs (we were on the third floor). There were issues with the internet as we had to use someone’s internet during our stay. And the air conditioning unit would blow cold air on top and hot air on the sides. We would come back to a hot hot room. Other than that, it was in a safe neighborhood and the bus stop was conveniently in front of the place!"

Leia's Rebel Princess Suite

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location relative to placed to walk and bus stops. Had trouble getting on internet, property contact was quickly responded and remedied. Stayed 4 nights. Great experience."

Bobba Fett's Carbonite Suite

10/10 Excellent

"The place was super clean. The check in process was smooth although a possible early check in was not granted and I later found out that it was the house rule for not allowing early check in. It would have been a good idea to let guests to know about the rule upfront instead of telling them that there was a possibility and you would get back to them later. The house is tucked in a residential area, so the location was a bit off from major attractions in Seattle. However the room was super clean with a renovated bathroom. Overall, it was an excellent place to stay a night if you are ok with the distance from the major attractions in Seattle."
