Ann was an excellent host who ensured that our check in went smoothly. She gave us good advice about how to reach her house using public transport and plenty of ideas about what to see and do. Her home is in a lovely quiet neighberhood not far from interesting cafes and restaurants. It had good transport connections, only 15-20mins from Seattle downtown by regular buses. It was even closer to the Chihuly gallery and garden which is a must do for any visit to Seattle. We had an early ferry out of Seattle and Ann even got up early to drive us to the dock. We recommend Ann as a host.
