Emily's place is a Seattle gem! One of my favorite AirB&Bs. With its tall windows, lake views and charming neighborhood, it feels private but accessible. Almost everything you could want is within walking distance: great restaurants, bakeries, grocery store, drugstore, shopping, Starbucks, bars, spa, salon, sauna, park, beaches! Easy access to the Arboretum and UW. Easy parking.
It's a quiet, friendly neighborhood, but if you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs. It's usually so quiet you can hear the waves lapping against the shore across the street, but it is sometimes punctuated by buses, delivery trucks, and an occasional drunk person leaving the bar down the street.
