My stay at Shannon's cozy, Ballard apartment couldn't have been better! The place is much more spacious than I had expected and filled with all kinds of amenities. From the freshly picked plums and flowers from the backyard to the lush towels, assorted teas and slippers left in the bedroom, I was reminded why an AirBNB experience can be so much more superior to a regular, old hotel stay. While the apartment was sparkling clean, streamlined and airy with a mid-century modern vibe, the touches were so personal and thoughtful. I never wanted to leave! And that rain shower nozzle in the bathroom REALLY sealed the deal. I can't wait to plan my next visit to Seattle!
