I had a very pleasant stay in Beatriz' home. She was very welcoming and friendly, and the description of the accommodations was accurate. She lent me an umbrella on the only (!) rainy day that week, and offered to pick me up from the nearby transit station if needed. Her family is wonderful, and that includes Chico, a very friendly and cute little dog. Beacon Hill is aptly named, with some elevation changes to the transit station (next to a great coffee shop) and to Lake Washington, but both are easy to get to. The neighborhood is quiet, with some morning traffic during the week.
