Karen was a great host! Her place was perfect for our family of 4. Just steps from the water and Alki Beach, and a great place to catch the water taxi into downtown Seattle. There's great places for food nearby too. We loved having a king sized bed to sleep in, and my boys each had their own beds to sleep in., which is a plus for a mom of teens. The area was very safe and the neighbors were friendly. I'd recommend her place to anyone!!
