Sheryl was very accommodating to us, despite a small glitch surrounding the dates we'd be staying in her home. She put us in a smaller room than we booked, but it was still very lovely, with a view to the apple tree out front. She also very quickly and without expectation offered a small refund due to the error which was very much appreciated and the sign of a fantastic host! She also offered us use of her laundry machines.
Her home is a work in progress as she clearly states, but it's a beautiful character home that fits into the neighborhood that itself is a character: full of gardens and fruit trees, even a few chickens up the street. There's a grocery store close by, which Sheryl will provide their loyalty card and grocery bags if needed, as well as several great international cuisines nearby. We only got to try the taco place, but it is fantastic. It's a short walk to the Fremont neighborhood and gasworks park overlooking the city.
I definitely recommend this location if you want a true Seattle experience. Green, liberal, and welcoming.
