Gerrit and Ann's place is something special. Everything about it is so unique and different. The design is very eclectic, but it all goes together perfectly. It's a mix of antique, industrial, and luxury. The retreat is self-contained behind their home, so you don't have to tiptoe around. The ground floor has a full kitchen with bar stools, washer/dryer, and a seating area (futon & coffee table). We were provided with a variety of snacks, but didn't consume much. This was due to us eating just about everything in the city. When you make your way upstairs, you will find the bedroom and bathroom. The mattress is memory foam and very comfortable. We really liked the industrial sliding door for the bathroom. Right outside the bedroom is a wrap-around balcony to take in some fresh air.

It was also very clean! :)

The neighborhood was very nice and quiet, just far enough away from downtown. We had a rental car, but the light rail is just a short walk away. You can take it direct to downtown and the airport.

Communication with Gerrit and Ann was a breeze and "check-in" was easy. We were provided with our own lockbox code to acquire our keys.

All in all, we had a wonderful time at their beautiful guest retreat and would definitely recommend it to anyone/everyone. There's no need to look anywhere else!
