Chris is the best host. He is super communicative, attentive, accommodating, and easy to get along with. We stayed in the apartment for a month while we were working out the logistics of a longer stay in Seattle. When we moved in, he left us a welcome basket of chips and chocolate! All throughout our stay, Chris went above and beyond with information and resources as we were getting settled here.
The Phinney neighborhood is tops! It's easy to get downtown via bus. There are two awesome grocery stores, multiple coffee spots, delicious bakeries, three ice cream shops, the best Thai food in all of Seattle, and loads of other restaurants all in walking distance. It's a nice neighborhood to be in.
