Julie is a very welcoming host. I had access to all common spaces. I appreciated the space in the kitchen and the ability to cook. Her home is located in a cute neighborhood with quite a few restaurants close by. If you like teryaki there is yummy teryaki within walking distance.
I appreciated the homemade treats (cookies, rolls, enchiladas, etc).
It is an easy drive to Lake Washington and walking trails. If you want more exercise you can walk to the lake, and it is a nice way to see the diverse neighborhood.
Parking was a little difficult. The neighborhood is growing and parking is limited.
Overall, I would recommend this host/location as a long term housing option
