Pete was so friendly from the moment I booked! He was very communicative, and even though we weren't checking in right at the start of the check-in window, I thought he was nice for sending me a message to make sure we got in ok, and let us know he and his family were upstairs if we needed anything. And when we did check in, he was nice enough to pop down (he lives upstairs with his family) and say hello, offer some tips on things that were in the area, and answer any questions we might have about Seattle. And on the next day, he even sent us a message in the morning recommending some places for breakfast in the area! Truly one of the most warm and friendly and helpful people/hosts! I really recommend his place...it's a quiet residential area, that is actually still fairly close to everything! Best of both worlds!
