James and Stephanie's spot is fantastic, for two reasons: 1) they are great hosts, and 2) the spot itself is awesome.
To point 1: they checked in early and often, ahead of time, shortly after I arrived, and a day or two in to make themselves available in case I might need anything. Upon arrival, they had a very helpful list of amenities in the area, and details about how the little house functions. There was also a kind little welcome note, which was a sweet touch!
To point 2: the place is brilliantly set up. If you're at all interested in efficient living in small spaces, this is a great place to draw inspiration. Not an inch wasted, and it doesn't feel small. Every time I thought something like, "too bad there's no room for a coat hook here," I'd look in the only place where a hook could be, and voila, there it was, folded into the wall." It's got everything you need and nothing you don't, all very well organized.
Lastly, the area is fantastic! Their street has a great little cafe/bakery, one of the highest quality corner store's I've ever seen (great cheese, charcuterie, bread, wine/beer/cider, produce, etc.) and a great (and authentic) taqueria just steps away from the house. If you're willing to walk more than 1 block, the greater neighborhood is a total gem, with excellent restaurants, parks, views galore, etc.
Couldn't have been a better experience, and will definitely try to book with these folks again the next time I come to Seattle!
