This was the first time we stayed at an Airbnb, and Elyse has set the bar high for future Airbnb stays for us! Her guesthouse is beautiful and well appointed! She communicated well with us throughout the entire process. We generally stay in a downtown hotel when visiting Seattle, however, the perks of staying at this cottage instead were long and satisfying! It was easy to get to with a ton less traffic than driving all the way into downtown, it was quiet and check in was much easier than a hotel. The Link Light Rail station was a short walk and got us into downtown in less than 15 minutes during rush hour! We did some shopping, had dinner and was back to the cottage before dark. After checking out, which was just leaving the key where we found it on the counter, we walked to the suggested Bakery a few blocks away for our much loved morning ritual of coffee and pastry...I had the most amazing Bostock pastry EVER! Our stay was short, so we didn't meet Elyse this time, but we'll be staying there again for sure and we will hopefully meet next time!
