The residence was a perfect fit for our needs, and the price was right. The neighborhood is quiet and near a few fine eateries and coffee shops. It is quite a walk or a bus ride to the heart of the Ballard District, but this is not a drawback. The moderate distance is very manageable and lends to the peaceful setting of Amanda's home.

The accommodations were clean, well-stocked, very pleasant and just the right fit for two travelers. Amanda was a gracious and generous hostess. She didn't interfere with our stay, but she was available and helpful anytime we needed assistance. We found her to be genuinely friendly and considerate. We would definitely consider staying at her place again.
