Karen was a wonderful host! On our firsts night, we had taken a ferry from Victoria to Washington, then drove another hour and 45 minutes to Seattle. Needless to say, we arrived late in the evening. Karen stayed up late to welcome us! She was always ready and able to help us with anything Seattle related- especially places to go and directions. The neighborhood is lovely, perfect for evening walks. The space was very clean and welcoming. The neighborhood is convenient and I felt very safe. I would highly recommend Karen as a host to anyone!
