Catherine is the most gracious host. She checked on us a couple of times to make sure we were comfortable, helped us with our luggage and allowed us to enjoy their balcony while they were away for a couple of days. The fridge was fully stocked with lox, bagels, cream cheese, milk, juice, yogurt and other essentials when we arrived. She also had granola, nuts and pastries waiting for us. The apartment was clean and wonderful. Walking distance to Macrina Bakery with great breakfast and coffee, but we also enjoyed breakfast in the kitchen by the large windows with views. Catherine shared her garden with us, we had freshly picked raspberries every morning. It had easy access to public transportation to go wherever we wanted. My mom and I enjoyed Catherine's apartment and Seattle very much. I'd love to come back and stay at her place again.
