Kim's house is in the best location for anyone wanting to explore the greater Seattle area; you don't need a car since you have convenient access to all the public transportation - just block or two from the bus stop which can take you downtown or to a link rail station. Also provided in the room are several suggestions for restaurants and places to explore in the neighborhood or downtown which was very helpful. The area is also very quiet at night which was perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring. Kim also provides anything you may have forgotten on your trip - toothpaste, shampoo, soap, etc. It was an awesome week in Seattle!
