Lucky me! I was Sabrina's first guesst at her stylish, efficient, and peaceful apartment/retreat. I enjoyed five restful nights at this one bedroom garden basement apartment. When I say "garden", I mean that in a literal sense as the windows open to grassres and blooms and French doors lead to a brick patio with a bistro table and chairs, potted plants, mature trees, and an emerald green lawn.
Sabrina is a graphic artist/designer which eas evident in the apartment's decor. The furniture was chic and comfortable. A fully stocked kitchen was perfectly laid out. Textured appointments such as pillows, throw blankets, and table runners were colorful and functional accents.
Lighting was provided by well placed lamps and ceiling pictures.
In other words, if you have the great fortune of staying here, you'll be sleeping in Dwell Magazine.
Also in the space, generous amenities abound: luscious coconut shampoo and ginger conditioner in a fresh tile shower, sodas in the fridge along with a carton of organic half and half, an excellent bed with the right amount of firmness and cuddly bed linens on top.
Sabrina is a bright and sunny hostess and an excellent communicator. She texted me with thoughtful offers of fresh towels, if I needed anything more in the kitchen, and an explanation that the sound of drums and brass instruments that appeared out of nowhere was the neighborhood high school marching band practicing on the next block for the upcoming graduation.
Sabrina's Airbnb is in the leafy splendor that is the neighborhood of Ravenna. Great walks are right out the door and it's an ideal location for accessing downtown, the University of Washington, Capitol Hill and other sweet neighborhoods.
You cannot go wrong with this Airbnb. It should be on your wish list!
