We had a lack of hot water issue upon arriving that did affect the beginning of our trip. However, thankfully, the hot water was fixed by day two evening. What would have made us relax more would have been having an in-person contact or more frequent status updates, so we would have spent less time trying to figure out if we should stay or find another place and more time focusing on our trip.
After communicating with Donna, the host, she validated our experience and we found a fair solution for the inconvenience.
The neighborhood is an easy drive to downtown Seattle and very charming. We enjoyed a nice dinner within walking distance. Make sure to also visit the Troll 2 minutes away! It was really nice to have access to coffee, a coffee maker, and a washer/dryer for our stay. The space itself comfortably accommodated 3 of us.
