The picture of this space is exactly as it appears when you walk in. Getting from the Seattle/Tacoma airport to this location was an absolute breeze; no more than a 30 minute commute in mild traffic. I've never lived in a city before and generally speaking, when I am in a city, I feel on edge and alert. This location in Seattle did not give me the bad vibes I normally get from being in a big city so I felt safe and relaxed. The door to the room has several locking mechanisms if you don't feel safe and the room is higher up than street level so you don't have to worry about window break ins. Checking in was so easy. Melissa even allowed me to check in a little early because of the timing of my flight in. The room smelled fresh, the carpet was clean, and the bathroom was spotless. The listing was larger than I expected and exceeded all my expectations as far as space and cleanliness. During my stay, Melissa and I crossed paths a few times and each time we interacted, she was so incredibly pleasant and helpful. She gave me a bit of insight on good local spots to spot, eat, hangout, and visit while I was in town. The listing is in the heart of the University district and there are so many shops, restaurants, grocery stores and places to see within walking distance. You can walk out the building turn left three times and be in an incredibly lively and vibrant district of Seattle. I happened to book my visit during a University of Washington football game and the quiet streets I entered into the days before turned into a hustling bustling fanfare block party. That was the only instance of bad traffic in the area that I experienced during my stay. Overall, Melissa did a fantastic job of delivering a most pleasant experience for my first trip to Seattle.
