Pros: Great location. We were able to skip the long line waiting in front of the entrance to Mt Rainier National Park. There is lots of space and beds. Each person of my family got their own bed. Host was very responsive.Cons: The house is old as shown in the pictures. It is not the cleanest but not gross at all.Would rent again. The location outweighs any cons.

Property is very sketchy, house has ceilings held up by bricks, spiderwebs were abundant, especially under the beds, felt very dirty, hair in the bathtubs, church pews as seats, kitchen is barely useable, bathroom is microscopic and too small
