As my first Airbnb experience, I can't imagine anyone more welcoming and accommodating than Dina. She went out of her way to meet my changing checkin time, and an additional person for the first of three nights when my daughter's college apartment wasn't ready.
The space was clean, well appointed, and cosy, The neighborhood is a bit artsy and a pleasant break from hectic downtown activities. The nearby beach is clean and a two minute walk from the accommodations. The description and other reviews are spot on. My initial concern was the "soft mattress" note, as I like a firm coil spring bed. And while not as firm as at home, it wasn't soft like I had feared, either. It was much more comfortable than the endless worn out motel mattresses. I slept like a log.
Dina was gracious, full of enthusiasm, recommended places to visit, shop, eat, etc. She has that Super Host badge for a good reason!
Thank you for a wonderful first Airbnb experience, and I will definitely stay here again on any future Seattle visits.
