Highly recommended! If you need a place to Stay in Seattle you can't go wrong with Phil's room. Phil and Andrea live in a beautiful home conveniently located between downtown and a nice beach of the washington lake. We had a car so going around wasn't much of a problem for us, and in any case a couple of blocks from their home there is a small area with restaurants and coffee shops. It was very easy to communicate with them (I talked a lot to Andrea because Phil was out of town) and check in and out was very easy. In the room, which is very private and clean, you will find an A4 with all the information you need and some great tips about what to do and where to eat in the area. If you get the chance to talk to them they will give you even more tips! They really are great hosts! The only tip I have is that if you are terrorized by spider (I know it is silly, but I am), just bring somebody with you that can kill them all off before going to bed! I think this is the only drawback about staying in a comfy wooden room surrounded by trees and nature!
