Kristin was a very gracious host and was very much willing to share ideas of what to do around Seattle. She had let me borrow her bike to ride around the city, which is quite accessible via light rail (the station is less than a mile away and bike friendly). The room was nice, clean, and just what I needed for the trip. It did almost feel like a home for a couple of days. The house is located just about a mile East of Lake Washington, which is perfect for going on a run or nice walk. The neighborhood is OK and the neighbors are very friendly. I would recommend my friends to stay with Kristen!
