A lovely quiet place to stay. We were greeted with a plate of the now famous Amanda brownies, a bowl of fresh fruit and were able to savor some off the the peas and lettuces growing in the garden during our stay (yummy). It is a nice quiet and friendly neighborhood with the #28 bus to downtown (20/25 minutes) just a few blocks away made getting into the city ideal. It stops near the Seattle Center, Pike Market, Pioneer Square and easy to connect with the light rail system. While we didn't have much of a chance to sit and chat with Amanda she is a vary warm and friendly host and took care of anything we might have needed. It was a great visit to Seattle made even better by our stay at Amanda's place
