The house is lovely--very clean, beautifully maintained, and with a fireplace. Becky is a great host; she was at the house when we arrived a bit early, told me where things could be found, and that she was only minutes away if we had other needs or questions. (We didn't until I arrived back home and realized that I had lost one of my earrings, which Becky found and returned by mail.:-)) The home is in a very nice neighborhood--residential, but close to shops and restaurants. Six of us stayed at the Galer St. house for a 4-day family visit, and all of us found it perfect for our needs. We will definitely try to stay there again when we return to Seattle!
