Paul was a great host. He kept in contact with me during my 10 hour trip delay from Memphis. This was my first trip to Seattle and I stayed in West Seattle to be nearer to friends. The neighborhood feels a bit secluded, while still having to access to everything you need if you have a car or are riding the bus. The area has a eclectic, funky vibe. A few blocks away there is park and South Seattle Community College, which made for a great morning walk. Thanks Paul, for the suggestion.
