Joyce is the perfect host. I cannot say enough good things about her. She is extremely friendly and generous, but also offers plenty of privacy. The cottage is small- perfect for one, very cozy for two. But Joyce thought of everything- rain jackets, bicycles, coffee, beer... She's very up on the Seattle restaurant scene, as well. Her house is perfectly situated just a few blocks from amazing restaurants, Gas Works Park (gorgeous view of downtown Seattle), and a bike trail.

I have used Airbnb several times now, but have never had a host as thorough or as thoughtful as Joyce. I'm afraid she's set a rather high bar for the future.
