From the start, Ann was on top of communication and making sure we had everything we needed heading into our trip to Seattle, including being very flexible with some changes in our arrival time.

Once we landed at her place in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood, her place was just what we needed: quiet, comfortable and an ideal hub to easily reach the many Seattle neighborhoods, including downtown, Queen Anne, Green Lake and Capital Hill, we wanted to visit.

The proximity to the restaurants and shops of Fremont, including the 2 stellar, don't miss spots of Milstead & Co. Coffee plus Silence-Heart-Nest (excellent breakfast and juices), plus the Burke-Gilman Trail for walking and cycling was wonderful.

Ann herself was super charming, which was obvious both via email and in the handful of minutes we got to talk the last morning we were there. Unfortunately, our time there didn't allow us to meet earlier in the trip or talk for longer, but we'll certainly stay with Ann again the next time we're in Seattle.
