i’ve been using airbnb for more than a decade now and it’s changed a lot. staying with george really reminded me of the early airbnb days when hosts were the real magic of booking through the site. george’s communication from the very beginning was stellar— always quick responses, checking in to see how we were doing, and he even wanted to make sure it’d be safe to bring our 5 month old baby (it was for us, but the space isn’t great for older kiddos who are more mobile). the listing itself was sparkling clean, very comfortable, had a well stocked kitchen, and was in an amazing location. parking was never a problem, and we loved being so close to everything in fremont, ballard, and green lake. the listing is super dog friendly and even had dog bowls! we loved the porch and sunset views. the ac was also very welcome since we were there during the heatwave, and george was so kind setting out a pitcher with ice tea for us during the heat. we can’t say enough good things about our stay and highly recommend!
