This place is adorable and very homey! As an added bonus, it's about a 5 minute walk to shops in "dowtown" Fremont and a 25 minute walk to Ballard. The bus stop is also on the corner, which is great for exploring the greater Seattle area.

Manuela was completely accommodating as a host. We were greeted with a Fremont Brewery beer in the fridge, local coffee, and a list of her favorite nearby spots (try the Carpenter and the Whale for upscale dining, but beware it shares a building with another restaurant, Chippy's, which can easily be mistaken but also has a great happy hour). The apartment is situated under her family's house, but you can't even tell they're there save the occasional light footstep. We were told they are unable to hear anything that happens in the apartment, and we do keep later hours and listen to music at night, so this was proven to be true.

Though we were out and about for most of our vacation, Manuela seems very open to questions, concerns, etc. We did stay over Thanksgiving and requested to stay a little later because our flight was at night, and she was completely open and gracious about our request. Overall, a great experience and highly recommended!
