After two nights on the Olympic Peninsula exploring some of the world's most spectacular landscapes, the two of us checked into Stephanie's place for a final evening in Seattle. This is in a quiet, hilly neighborhood that felt like a quintessential Seattle residential scene. The big attractions, like Pike Place Market and the Space Needle are a short drive away--walkable only for ambitious walkers. As for the accommodations, this is an old place that has been kept really clean and amply updated. Minimalist kitchen zone with fridge, microwave, and sink. The clawfoot tub/shower are a treat, and the most striking aspect of the place is the wide-angle view through two large windows out to a terraced and beautifully manicured backyard. We would definitely stay there again!
