I'm a UW student who stayed here while between living situations; it's right on the bus line so the commute to class was great. The space is quite large with a connected living room and bedroom area. The neighborhood is quiet with lots of families.
I didn't speak to the host much (I was busy doing homework or out of the house on campus most of the time) but she answered my questions promptly whenever I had them. All in all, I had everything I needed and enjoyed the stay.
