Marilyn's place is incredible. I lived in Seattle for 4 years and was back for a 2 month visit this summer and was not disappointed. The room itself was cute, quiet and had everything you might need. The bathroom, community space and kitchen were always clean and Marilyn even provided some snacks, tea and community dinners every now and then. She was very responsive whenever I needed help and would even keep an eye out for packages getting delivered to the house. The neighborhood around Marilyn's is really cute too: there's a coffee shop, taco place, burger place, movie theater, 2 bars and more all within a 5 minute walk. The other residents were always quiet and respectful which I appreciated as well. I would absolutely recommend staying here!
