Chad & Reuben were great hosts. They communicated wonderfully with us and were always available if we needed anything. The house itself is great and just the right size for us. More importantly, the location of the home is perfect for the first time visitor that doesn't mind losing turn down service for feeling immersed in the local vibe. We were able to walk to just about everywhere, including a 4 mile hike to Leschi and the lake that I don't recommend if you aren't a seasoned hiker. Closer to home, Broaway is two blocks up the hill and has every restaurant and store you could possibly need. Also Dick's famouse hamburger joint is three minutes from the front door and open til 2AM, go there, you will like it. There was a great little independent coffee shop two blocks down and a Starbucks within a minute or two. You could spend your entire time in this little neighborhood hanging out.

But more importantly, you can walk or take an affordable car service on a quick trip to downtown, Seattle Center, U of W and just about anywhere else. We were able to walk to a lot of our destinations, see them and then take a car back everyday without breaking the bank. And with the small kitchen, you're able to get some staples or even cook for yourself if you don't want to go out for dinner. And during the 4th of July, you can follow the locals down the street to watch the fireworks without trying to fight the crowds at one of the larger venues.

Nice touches to the room were having a ROKU, WiFi, a super comfy air mattress, and keypad entry that meant no one had to keep up with a key.

I'd definitely tell anyone I knew to stay with Chad & Reuben in Seattle.
