I spent one month living and working remotely from Jen and Jason’s place in Seattle, and it was exactly what I was looking for.
Here are some of my favorite things to note about the apartment:
- The place itself is lovely; cozy and not too big or small; stylish cork floors and accent wall in the bedroom
- Before my arrival, I was worried about lack of natural light since it’s subterranean, but it was actually totally fine
- The bed was super comfortable
- Heated floors in the bathroom!
- Nice shower with great water pressure
- I cooked nearly every meal for myself for the whole month, and the full kitchen (fridge, stove, oven, microwave, water boiler, pots, pans, etc) had everything I could have wanted
- I was taking several hours of video calls with clients most days and the wifi connection was perfect. Not to mention that Jen was so accommodating and went out of her way to make sure I’d have a desk and ergo chair (not pictured when I was choosing this place) so I’d be more comfortable while working from home
- TONS of storage space (closet with hangers plus a huge dresser in the bedroom)
- The location was great; quaint, safe neighborhood; 5-15 minute drive to any grocery store you can think of; 10-15 minute drive downtown and Pike’s Place; 40-60 minute drive to dozens of amazing hiking options in the mountains
- There was always plenty of free street parking right outside
Jen and Jason are wonderful, attentive, and very generous hosts. I would 100% recommend this Airbnb as a short or long-term stay to anyone!
