Brent was a terrific host. He was warm and welcoming and we enjoyed meeting him. He was especially accommodating in helping us to squeeze 3 people into what is really a 2 person space by giving us an extra futon for our daughter and storing some of our luggage for us in his garage. We really appreciated that. It is a very nicely situated apartment and is surrounded with beautiful windows overlooking treetops so that you feel as though you are in a treehouse. The apartment was small but very private and cosy with a little porch out back overlooking the distant lights of the ciry. The apartment is attached to the back of a house that Brent lives in and has a separate entrance and so feels very private. Brent was always responsive to our questions and needs but also gave us privacy and space. The apartment was very clean and tastefully decorated with many beautiful examples of artistic craftsmanship. Everything we needed was there and many extra thoughtful touches as well such as fresh bagels and coffee and a bowl of fruit, all in place on our arrival. The location was fabulous for our needs. We rode our bikes each day to the University by way of a bike trail that was only 5 minutes from the house. Green Lake and a beautiful woodland park were also within walking distance as well as many cafes, restaurants, a supermarket and a place to do laundary. We would most certainly come again and recommend this as a really terrific place to stay.
