I had the pleasure of meeting Flor with my mother during my first visit to Seattle. In this brand new city I had the daunting task of finding an apartment in 4 days. From the moment Flor came out to help us carry our luggage up into our rooms, she made us feel as we had arrived at home with such a warm welcome. We had the choice to stay in many of her immaculate rooms which were well equipped with anything you might need on a short or even extended stay. Her location is right in the center of it all and is only 15 minuties to downtown Seattle. She is so close to parks and trails for running/hiking/biking, and walking distance to all sorts of grocery/merchandise stores. Her years of experience as a nurse really shines through as she has taken the time and thought to make sure you have everything you need for such an enjoyable visit. Our room had a spacious closet, orthopedic mattresses, desk, refrigerator, microwave, and even utensils to prepare our own dinner. She supplied each of us with our own beautiful towel set, and the bathrooms were well stocked with luxurious shampoos and beauty products, so I wasn't in despair when I had realized I left a few things at home. The mornings were my favorite part of the stay, as we would wake up to the fragrant aroma of Flor's Peruvian cuisine coming from the kitchen. She had such an amazing selection every morning that started with hot peruvian coffee and fresh tropical fruit juices. My favorite was the hot peruvian omelets loaded with peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, avocados, and cheese served with the tasty mountain potatoes garnished with peruvian spices. Her home caters to every type of person/group. Whether you want a guide to the Seattle area, or if you just want your own private space to stay Flor truly allows you to decide what you like. She has grown to be one of my first and most genuine friends in this city. Two weeks after my first stay, I was in quite a difficult situation because I was unable to move into my apartment and started work in a few days. Without a place to stay or even a car to use, Flor immediately took me back into her beautiful home. She helped drive me around and took me shopping at Northgate mall (7min) and made sure that I was beyond prepared to start my new job with Boeing. In the meantime she allowed me to attend a party she was hosting where I was able to enjoy even more of the Peruvian cuisine and have a spectacular evening meeting her family. She truly is a genuine and amazing woman and has become like a mother to me. Whether laughing and learning to salsa dance together or even sharing memories from back home over dinner, there is such a heartfelt experience involved with staying at Flor's Place "The 5-Star House."
