If you love art, animals, and yoga, this is the place for you. My niece was visiting me in Portland from Springfield MO and had never been to Seattle before. I found this site by accident while looking for a place to stay.
Angielena Chamberlain is a very cool and talented hostess. We shared her wonderful art studio with her, 4 rescue cats, and an adorable Jack Russell Terrier. The room was small and quaint with a comfortable feather bed. There were towels and fluffy bathrobes laid out for us to use.
For those of you who like something artsy and not overrun with tourist, you will love the Georgetown area.
And...if you want to go downtown, the 106 bus will get you straight to all the downtown Seattle usuals such as Pike's Market. The 106 will also get you straight to and from the Amtrak station. When we arrived late at night, it was so great that the bus went from the Amtrak station to just 2 doors down to Angielena's door! No car needed!
If you don't mind sharing a little space, this is a great place to stay with an amazing hostess. I highly recommend this and hope to stay again on my next trip to the area!
