Randy's place is located very convenient to the University District. The location is also convenient to the light rail station at the University of Washington, but it involves a bit of a walk. We used a car service when we were tired, which takes about five mins from the station to Randy's place. The room was clean and included a lot of nice extras (glasses, fridge, electric kettle, microwave, etc.). The rest of the house and shared bathroom were clean and the house was generally quiet inside. The room we were in picks up a bit of outside noise, but that doesn't bother us. The neighborhood is safe and beautiful. Randy gave us a good tour/run-down of the place when we got there, and he was an all-around great host. Most importantly, we'd stay there again! (as long as they'll have us).
