We highly recommend the Roost!
Super location – we stayed almost a week and walked to Whole Foods, coffee shops, great burgers and fitness studios (Kettlebility and Barre 3). We mostly used Uber to explore other areas, but the light rail downtown and to the airport is easy. If you want the bus, there are many stops within walking distance and the shop to get passes is just a few blocks away.
Lots of amenities – the apartment is kitted out nicely! We made several hot breakfasts and a couple of dinners. Several basic herbs, spices and condiments were provided in addition to all the dishes, pots and pans you need in a kitchen. The bathroom had nice quality, unscented shampoo, conditioner, soap and lotion. There are lots of good quality, fluffy towels and a hairdryer provided. The bedding was comfy and in nice condition as was the furniture and lighting.
Fantastic people – Kelly and Patrick are very nice and super helpful. They have a great balance of being available yet giving guests privacy. They are thoughtful and experienced hosts.
Rocky – Attention all dog lovers! You must stay at the Roost and meet Rocky the Aussiepoo. We encouraged him to visit us and stay a while for a cookie or two. He is a quiet, smart, well behaved and very friendly little guy. We looked forward to seeing him every day.
We’ve rented many apartments in the US and around the world and the Roost is one that we’d rent again. Thanks Kelly, Patrick and Rocky!
