James made me feel welcome at the very beginning by posting a sign with my name on the door that said "Kriss this is the place", also Starbucks coffee and non-dairy creamer options, fruit and fresh cut flowers graced the dinning table. Very nice touches. The movie collection was spot on with cartoons from my boys childhood. We built more memories together as we laughed and rememered their youth. This is priceless!
This Greenlake location gave me a central access to lots of Seattle activities and restaurants within walking distance. When I did use my car It was very easy to find parking, most of the time I found a spot right in front of the house. As a guest I should have thought it through a little more. Me being a light sleeper, the basement space was a little noisy a couple mornings. James made me feel welcome and promised to be quiet and he did. I met many spiders and being terrified of them I did not feel welcome. This is something the host apologized for and promised to look into and remedy. The space was cozy and roomy. The bed was a little too springy for someone with a bad back so I moved to the futon. The pillows and comforters were cozy.
Thank you again Jim.
