There are many reasons Kari deserves the “super host” status. Not only is she nice but so thoughtful. I greatly appreciated her no fuss, no pressure check in and check out. We arrived late on check in day and had to leave super early on check out and liked how we didn’t need to meet her at a specific time to get or return keys. She left little amenities like a few bottles of water in the fridge, mini baby shampoos for our kids and even contact solution if in the case you have forgotten yours and need to just make it through he night. There is a Whole Foods literally 5 minutes away, perfect for families in need of milk or a quick breakfast pick up for fussy kids. The location was fantastic. I felt all the hip neighborhoods like downtown, Capital Hill, Ballard, Fremont, U Wash area were just a 10 minute drive away. Plenty of room for our family of 4. I think she lives upstairs and you can hear some creaking every so often, but nothing that bothered us at all. Would stay at Kari’s again in a heartbeat. Value for what you get can’t be beat!
