What a fantastic experience! Brian has figured this hosting thing down to the very last detail and we are concerned that all future trips will pale in comparison.
Our stay started the same day as snow storm Maya, so we arrived 10 hours later than expected. We were tired and looking forward to a bed. We were pleased to find the loft was clean and welcoming. The fridge was stocked with water and all sorts of snacks. There was also chocolates and a fully stocked ‘K’ cup coffee selection for our down time.
Spending some time watching Seattle shut down the next day on the big screen TV above the deco fireplace, we noted how much attention had been placed in the design and layout of the space. Orange Birds of Paradise and Mother-in-law’s Tongue were in pots along the perimeter of the main room – it just added to the tropical feel as we looked at the snow covered homes through a wall of tall bamboo outside. Downtown and the Space Needle are clearly visible from the south facing windows and master bedroom balcony.
We were told the neighborhood is the happening place, but sadly the weather caused just about everything to close early, so we did not get to explore the local fare too much. – BUT – if you have to get stuck inside, this is the inside you want to get stuck in.
Fantastic experience – worth every penny and a fraction of what the hotels would have charged for half of the experience.
