We loved our stay at Kristi and Jason's. The beds were comfortable, the towels and pillows were high quality, and the water pressure and temperature in the shower were great, even when all three of us showered within an hour. We only cooked breakfast in the apartment, but we found everything we needed.
The two times we contacted Kristi, the response was prompt, and she solved our problems right away. (BTW, both problems were our fault: We blew a fuse while using the hair dryer in the living room, and we didn't see the remote control for the AC on the table.)
We didn't get much opportunity to explore the area around the apartment, but my son, a former Seattle resident, said the neighborhood was a great place. Given the long list of nearby restaurants Kristi and Jason provided, I imagine this is true . We did find a nice coffee shop less than a 10-min walk, and we were told there is a great patisserie (Celine's) also within a short walk, but we didn't have time to try it.
I highly recommend staying with Kristi and Jason!
