Legendary host - everything exceeded our expectations. Check-in and communication were efficient, and Michael left us to ourselves but was always immediately available to answer messages. He put together a welcome basket for us with snacks, coffee, and wine. The apartment is minutes on foot to bars, restaurants, parks, a supermarket, the light rail, and bus - it's one stop from downtown but quiet at night. Michael went out of his way to make sure we had a great time. He even provided quarters for the coin-op laundry. We wouldn't stay anywhere else in Seattle.
