Joy’s place was perfect for what we needed as we transitioned from one house to another. The neighborhood is one of the best in Seattle. Very calm, quiet, green, top of a hill with expansive views and lots of light. Joy’s house is a gem with a well manicured lawn (where guests are able to dine and use the bbq grill right next to it) with beautiful landscaping, flowers, hummingbirds and surrounded by majestic trees. The location of our apartment was at the top of the house like an eagle’s nest. Views were plenty (even a direct shot at Mt Rainier!). The large deck was suitable for dining, relaxing, sky gazing. The apartment itself is very spacious and cozy at the same time. The master bedroom has vaulted ceilings, a washer & dryer combo, a comfy (queen?) bed and tasteful furniture and art. The kitchen is exceptionally well-stocked with cooking and baking tools. The loft above is a cozy room and sleeping space that has a very comfortable and large bed. Under the loft there is another bed in an area that also has a work/study space. The bathroom is large, and comes with a large tub (w/ jets!) and a shower stall. To top it all off, the host is very kind and helpful, respectful of privacy but easy to reach when needed. Overall, we loved this place. It was difficult to leave after 2 months making it our home.
