I found Leslie to be a great host who was extremely helpful when it came to exploring Seattle and the surrounding area. Her home not only has great character but has stunning views over the port, Puget Sound and the snow-capped mountains in the distance. It's also conveniently located for bus services and is less than 10 minutes walk to Beacon Hill's 'Link Light Rail ' station. I even walked to the Downtown / International District and Amtrak railway station in under 40 minutes. I stayed for 3 nights and slept like a log. Highly recommended.
