This was the second time staying at Stephanie’s apartment. We didn’t see much of Stephanie, but she welcomed us back warmly and made sure we were all set in her cozy and quiet apartment. Her place is ideally located for us in that it is near our daughter’s family and also within walking distance to everything one would need and want (grocery stores, great restaurants, the zoo, Green Lake, and of course numerous coffee shops). If you do want to go in to Seattle, it’s an easy drive in. Stephanie’s apartment has most everything you would need. The heated bathroom floor is comfy. Having a washer and dryer are of course a plus. We are usually out and about and after a hard day “grandparenting,” the comfortable bed is appreciated immensely. Stephanie has a bowl full of brochures of restaurants and other businesses that can be really helpful. In addition she has little labels posted around so that you know what to recycle, how everything works, and more. On the hall wall is a map that even shows how wide and far her guests have come from. Another welcoming gesture is a bowl of treats and a number of items in the refrigerator that Stephanie provides. On our next trip to Seattle, we will again be hoping to be able to stay in Stephanie’s great little place.
