Catherine's beautiful home really made our time in Seattle great. It was such a luxurious place to start the day and to come home to. So many things to say! It's quiet. Catherine was very responsive to our questions and even reached out mid-week to ask how it was going. She had left little treats (scones, organic sodas, etc.) for us.
But the apartment itself is the real stunner. It's high on Queen Anne, so the view down to the harbor is amazing. We loved sitting on the porch in the early evening and reading with these views just beyond our books. Her garden is lovely, with dahlias, herbs, tomatoes and even pumpkins spilling out of the rocks.
There's so much to enjoy inside, too: amazing large gorgeously tiled bathroom with a wonderful big tub, a pretty kitchen, really pleasant living room with great sofa and chairs, lots of lovely lamps for soft lamp lighting. The apartment is so beautifully appointed -- lots of luxury, interesting art on the walls, good colors. The bedrooms are next to each other, but I couldn't hear anything from the other bedroom, which is really nice for sleeping.
I really enjoyed the neighborhood, too and I have to recommend the wonderful Queen Anne farmers' market on Thursday afternoon/evening -- don't miss it!
This is probably the nicest Airbnb I've ever stayed in.
