Our family stayed at Ann's place for a week and we had wonderful time there. Ann was very warm and patient in communicating with us. Especially, English is not our native language and my wife and daughter were not good at speaking in English. She made our family feel like home. Ann's home is on a secluded, private hilltop area, but it is just a short work to Fremont center. We also liked walking around the neighborhood because it is quiet, beautiful, and full of good smell from the flowers grown in that area. There are several bus lines to go to different parts of Seattle. Ann gave us useful information about where to go in Seattle and we mainly used the buses to explore Seattle area. We even took a ferry to Bainbridge island and saw a wonderful night view of Seattle when we took the ferry back. We also walked to Greenlake from Ann's place. My wife and daughter paddled kayak for the first time. What a great experience we had in Seattle and we had great memory there. We enjoyed our time in Ann's place and will definitely come back again if we have time to visit Seattle again. Thanks, Ann!
