Lucy, the host, made special accommodations and allowed us to check in earlier. And although there wasn't much we needed, we were assured by Lucy that if there was anything we needed to just let her know.
She was a great host.
As for the place, it was very clean and cozy with many amenities. There were some restaurants, coffee shops, bars and other shops right around the corner that we particularly enjoyed. Green Lake was also in walking distance and downtown was about a 10 to 15 minute drive depending on traffic.
Overall our stay was perfect and hope to book here again if we ever visit Seattle.
