Melissa's place was exactly what I was looking for. I spent 3 days in Seattle to come visit a friend of mine who didn't have enough space for me and my 2 other friends to crash, so we rented Melissa's place, which was a 5-minute walk away. My arrival was delayed so I was unable to meet her when we had agreed to meet, but when I called Melissa to let her know, she kindly left the doors open for me so I could get into the apartment and then came back later to welcome me to the apartment as soon as she could. The location is great if you are looking for a place really near to UW. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment had been meticulously cleaned before we arrived. All in all, our stay was very comfortable and we had an excellent weekend in Seattle!
