This is a very comfortable room in an impeccably clean and nicely-furnished house. Mehrit is also a great host, and I enjoyed our conversations. I especially appreciated the self-serve breakfast and refrigerator space so I could have something to eat in the morning before hopping on a bus downtown. Although the house is in Mt. Baker and away from livelier neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, public transportation to and from the house was regular and easy to use (and the Seattle bus drivers are extremely forgiving if you don't have the right change). By car it's a short drive to the major sights. All in all, a nice experience in an open and interesting city.
