Our first Airbnb experience was wonderful! We spent eight days in gorgeous Seattle (and it really was gorgeous - beautiful weather!). Amanda was a fantastic host. We had yummy brownies and fruit waiting for us when we arrived. We were able to use the washer and dryer in the basement, just a few steps outside of our room. That was a huge help for us and really cut down on the amount of clothing we packed for our trip.

The room was the perfect size for us - all three of us (two adults and one child) had plenty of room to spread out. There was definitely ample storage - two dressers, one desk, two nightstands, and a large closet with room for shoes, luggage and hanging clothes (hangers included!).

Both beds (the queen bed and pull-out love-seat) were very comfortable. I never sleep well my first night away from home, but I slept like a baby on the very comfy queen bed. My husband's contribution to this review: The heated floor in the bathroom was awesome!!! Oh, and the water pressure in the shower rocks!

Having a refrigerator and microwave in the room was definitely a plus! They were both put to good use with leftovers from Delancy (fantastic pizza place - try the bittersweet chocolate chip cookie with gray salt for dessert) and Honore (delightful bakery - try everything). We had no leftovers from The Fat Hen, but we did eat brunch at a table next to Penn Badgley and Zoe Kravitz! We quite enjoyed having such excellent dining options within easy walking distance.

Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Great host, great room, great neighborhood, great city!
