This place is just as described...but better. The art, design, and plants wherever you look are fun, both inside and outside. It was a discovery at every turn. I liked being right on the E bus line. It was so easy to get downtown and Pike Place Market on the E line. It was also easy to get to the waterfront docks by using the free downtown shuttle. Gus the cat said hello but stayed outside. The water fountains in the yard made any traffic noise a non-factor. The ramp up to the house and all one level were really helpful for my mom who has limited mobility. We would definitely stay again. Communications with the hosts were excellent.
