We’ve stayed with Kristen before, that’s why we know we will stay with Kristen any time we go to Seattle. The place is incredible! It is modern and funky, yet homey and comfortable. The kitchen is very functional and encourages one to cook in (instead of eating out). We are pretty particular about our bed and this one was second to none; both of us are insomniacs, yet slept soundly each night. In other words, the bed is A-Mazing and there are enough blankets/covers to keep warm even on the coldest nights. The view from inside the house is great, but from the patio is overwhelming! We were lucky enough to be there to see a double rainbow with the Space Needle in the background. The neighborhood is beautiful too. It’s also easy to get to/from downtown from her place.
Beyond the amenities and location, is Kristen. She is attentive, but not nosy. She is always available by text, which is great for us. And, she earnestly wants to know if there is anything she can do to make the stay better. She is a wealth of information about the local area and things to do (special events, best time to go to locations, etc.). She is wonderful hostess! When we walk into the rental, we can tell that she set it up specifically for us because of the extra special steps she takes (e.g., she put Diet Coke in the refrigerator for me). We couldn’t ask for a better hostess.
Bottom line: Great location, Awesome Hostess, Comfy rental.
