You can tell that Stina put a lot of love into this home. It was sparkling clean, tastefully decorated, and very well stocked with the various sundries a traveler might need. The living room and brand new kitchen seemed larger than they appeared in the pics. Unlike other partially owner occupied Airbnb's I've stayed in, there wasn't a strong feeling that I was staying in a stranger's home (zero clutter, almost zero ostensibly personal photos/momentoes). The fancy espresso machine and Stumptown coffee (provided) produced delicious and easy-to-prepare espresso! I found Stina to be meticulous in a good way. She provided a LOT of instructions (13 pages I believe + messages). Some might find this cumbersome, but I concluded that it was worth it as it allowed us to enjoy the home to the fullest. The location is smack dab in the middle of Green Lake to the north, downtown to the south, Ballard to the west, and Lake Washington to the east. So, unless you plan to go way north or way south, the location for the general exploration of Seattle's best places is hard to beat. Even the Eastside can be accessed quickly if (and this is a BIG if), there isn't much traffic. My fingers are crossed that this will be available when I visit Seattle again.
