Kristen did a marvelous job of making us feel welcome in her lovely apartment. The neighborhood is simply beautiful and close to shops and restaurants. Her patio/garden area is a marvelous place to relax; filled with plants and comfortable furnishings. She gave us tips about places to visit in Seattle, and shared special treats with us. On our final day, she offered to take us to the store and then dropped us off at the port for our cruise. Highly recommend!
