My boyfriend and I loved Lael's home! There was plenty of natural lighting from the private balcony which had the most beautiful view. After an easy check-in, we noticed that Lael had provided many snacks and homey touches. She also provided suggestions for local restaurants - - and she has great taste! Coffeemind and Toulouse Petit were wonderful. For local travel, we were able to get around easily via bus and Uber. We did notice there was more parking in her neighborhood than most of Seattle, so it may not be too difficult if you have a rental car. All in all, a quiet and beautiful getaway. We can't wait to return!
