Even though we didn't get a chance to meet Monika in person, she went a long way to make us feel welcome. She was easy to get a hold of for questions and left a nice birthday treat for me for when we arrived. She made tons of recommendations for us around the city, and even had an umbrella delivered to us when we asked if there was one available.

The apartment itself was exactly as described - comfortable and chic. It had everything we needed.

We enjoyed exploring the neighborhood. It was a short drive to Greenlake, downtown, Fremont, and downtown Ballard.
