Laura's home is wonderfully cosy and inviting, and Laura herself is such a warm and kind host. The room I stayed in for 3 months was really well-appointed and clean. It really came to feel like home to me. The location has really great access to public transit since there are a lot of bus stops with lots of different routes stopping very close by. It only takes about 20-30 minutes to get downtown or to SLU by bus. There are also a number of interesting food joints nearby (I recommend Quick Pack Food Mart for some of the best fried chicken in Seattle). The only minor issue I had was that there is a flight path close to the house and I found the noise bothersome on my first day or two. But I basically stopped noticing it after that. It shouldn't be an issue for most people unless you're quite sensitive to noise. My stay here has been truly wonderful and I wholeheartedly recommend it!
