My wife and I stayed in Malinda's place for a little over 2 months so we got the know it quite well. I have done quite a few ~1month long stays in airbnbs on the west coast and I have to say, my overall impression is that Malinda's place ranks near the top.
Pros:
- Malinda is just great. For example, they had to have some breif electrical work done upstairs from our unit and Malinda brought us a bottle of wine to appoligize for the inconvenience. She was generally very responsive throughtout the stay as well.
- The little side yard has an amazing view of sunrise over Lake Washington
- next door neighbors let you use their nice lighted stairs so you can park in a more convenient place.
- laundry was accessable and worked well
- plenty of extra sheets/towels etc. for a long stay
- plenty of space to unpack clothes
- quiet neighborhood, close grocerys
cons:
- mini fridge is a bit small for a long stay if you cook a lot
- no full sized oven if that matters to you
