Shan's place was perfect for our week-long stay. The accommodations in the Urban Studio were exactly as described (and I appreciated little things, like the alarm clock with USB ports for charging my phone and FitBit). The kitchen is perfect for making a quick breakfast before heading out for the day (I'm sure other meals, too - it's gorgeous), and we stocked up on basics at Uwajimaya, which is fairly close by. Everything was very clean and comfortable. We also loved exploring the neighborhood; we should have gone to Beacon Hill when we lived in Seattle! And we interacted with other guests the perfect amount; it didn't feel crowded at all, but we met several interesting fellow travelers. It was extremely easy to check in and enter (which was appreciated after we got really late after travel plans went awry) and Shan was very communicative and accessible. Highly recommend!
