Staying at Marti's place was my first airbnb experience, and I hope to stay there every time I come to Seattle. The private entrance and private bed and bath kept me from feeling like I was intruding on anyone else's space, and the motion lights on the outside of the house helped give a feeling of safety. The room and bathroom were so comfortable and had everything I needed (toiletries, hair dryer, towels, etc.). The space has recently been updated, and I appreciated the USB ports in the wall outlets. Marti's kindness, hospitality, and special touches in the room made me feel at home. She provided fruit, protein bars, water, juice, milk, and lots of coffee and tea options. It was also helpful to have dishes and silverware in the room. I enjoyed being greeted by Marti's sweet dog, Bonnie, the few times I came home while she was outside. Because the room is below Marti's living space, follow the advice of other reviewers and bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Overall a great place to stay in a great neighborhood. (10 minutes to get downtown via uber on the weekends, 15+ minutes on weekday mornings; also very near a bus line that goes downtown)
