We wanted to be in the Phinney Ridge neighborhood because we were visiting friends and lucked out booking this adorable spot. Laurie was a fantastic host! She was easy to get a hold of and answered all of my questions about the space. Directions were clear and the binder she provides answered most, if not all, of our questions. We had stayed in Seattle before, but had gotten a hotel in downtown. This was, obviously, a different experience and one that I really enjoyed (and needed). Everything I needed was in walking distance. From the corner market to tasty coffee to takeout options to breakfast pastries, I didn't need to travel far for anything. We enjoyed a nice brunch out on the patio the morning before our flight and loved the garden and the space. Thanks so much for your amazing hospitality, Laurie! I don't know if my goddaughter will end up going to school in Seattle, but I'll be bringing my wife up for some much needed time away in the near future and will plan around this unit's availability. Thanks!
