Matthew's place was a very cozy, comfortable space in a great location.
It was exactly as described. It had the homey feel as if you were staying with friends. It is located in a nice neighborhood ideal for taking a stroll. There is a cafe we had breakfast at only a couple of blocks away. The couple we were with had rented a car and there was never a problem finding parking on the street.
Communication was great. It was our first visit to Seattle and Matthew offered recommendations and useful information prior to our arrival. Unfortunately we never got to meet Matthew as he was out of town during our stay. He did arrange for a friend to meet us upon arrival. He left a bottle of wine, chocolate bar and bag of chips for us which we thought was a nice touch and something you won't get staying at a hotel.
Over all staying at Matthew's was a great experience and I will definitely stay there again on our next visit to Seattle.
