Summary: This was exactly as it is described and then some. The first thing my wife said after she walked through was that she was glad it was so clean. Like, it was immaculate. No hint of cutting corners. The host, Lane, deserves a 10 stars award herself. Totally attentive and quick to reply, and incredibly informative without being intrusive. Further, the private, off-street parking place was a solid win. We have a Suburban, not exactly a Seattle friendly vehicle, and it fit with comfort right at the back of the house, which made a private-esque entry as well. Great neighborhood. It feels safe and friendly. Finally, the beds! It was so nice and comfortable. It is about time an owner put thought into the sleeping mattress. What is the point of going on a trip if you will grumpy from a terrible night of sleep the next day? These mattresses were awesome. I can’t vouch for the pullout, because we didn’t need it. But all of the others were fantastic. There are a ton of other awesome details that I wish I had time to write about, but somebody’s got to pay for these trips! So, back to work I go. If I ever decide to stay in Seattle again, I would totally check to see if this place is available for the night.
