Jonathan’s charming bungalow in West Seattle is a great oasis of peace, calm, and beauty - deeply healing for me, after the long, tiring, and deeply stressful day of travel I'd had by the time I finally reached it, close to midnight. I was so grateful to be able to park my car in the attached garage, and to unload it with a great sense of safety and security. The moment I walked in the front door, I was deeply struck by the sense of beauty, peace, and quiet - and amazed at the elegance of all of the appointments in the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, and all else – and how deeply thoughtfully Jonathan had anticipated and provided for each of the needs his guests might have. I was continually struck by how much loving thoughtfulness was poured into the design and outfitting details of this home. I have yet to find another B&B, in my travels since I left Jonathan's home, that came close to matching the deeply thought-out preparations and provisions that Jonathan offered his guests, in this lovely bungalow.
In addition to the wonderful interior space, the windows from the kitchen and living room look out onto lovely old trees, and at the end of the block there is a walking trail into the woods: so inviting! I simply didn't want to leave!
Jonathan was also an incredibly kind and thoughtful host. I hope to have the opportunity to return to this lovely bungalow one day - and to hike in the woods and try out the hot tub: it looks wonderful! An incredibly lovely and peaceful place to rest and relax and recharge, in beautiful West Seattle, and a wonderful base for adventures. I want to come back!
