This petite place was a warm and intimate bright spot in a lovely wooded North Capitol Hill enclave. I had lived in various parts of Capitol Hill and so was unexcited to discover my California born partner had booked this place without my input. "It's a little out of the way compared to other places in CH" I muttered. I need to trust more, I guess, because this place was lovely inside and out, and only a 10 minute walk to the best of Pike/Pine corridor and Broadway/Roy area. Upon arrival, varied and interesting "hedgeings" are well manicured and give a secluded feel to the quaint little cottage. The place itself is well laid out and delightfully "Ikea-ized" in using ingenious and eye appealing storage. (Especially the ample below counter-top fridge) A sweet fireplace with a Victorian mantle, a pile of books and a mounted stag head add to the Northwest charm. What really grabbed my heart were the details and finishes - thick ceramic coffee mugs, Pike Place Roast coffee, an over head rack with non toxic pans, I could go on...oh, and lush white terry cloth robes! It was so cold and rainy and dark during our stay, yet each night we came back to a cozy home that also felt quintessentially Capitol Hill hip. Thank you for the lovely stay...
