It felt like staying at a friend's house, very cozy and comfortable. Adrian and Rebecca are awesome hosts! They welcomed us with a box of goodies and were dropping off some surprises throughout our stay: sweets, bbq grill, and some seasonal decorations for the front yard. They even brought us to the Ballard's gym! Overall, we loved staying at the house: one of the highlights was relaxing at the backyard patio watching Fall colors.
The neighborhood is very quiet and chill. I slept very well through the night. A few recommendations within the walking distance:
* A morning walk to Golden Gardens park picking up coffee from Cafe Fiore, or just watching sunset there.
* Larsen's bakery danishes,
* Hummus at Cafe Munir.
By car the downtown of Seattle is not too far. Lots of places to explore are pretty close, for example, Ballard's downtown and Nordic Heritage museum are both 8 mins away. Rebecca provided us lots of recommendations and even made a fun schedule for us on a whiteboard by the entrance!
