Sheryl was a lovely host, and her house was a great place to stay for a few days. As the other reviews said, her house is a work in progress but it was clean, the bed was comfortable and the shower was strong and hot, that's all I care about really. It was a nice easy walk (easy to connect to the walking/bike trail) to UW for my conference, and the neighborhood is quiet and has great restaurants very close. For the price and location and friendly hospitality, can't beat it!
