As others have already said, Mardy and Kate have obviously put a great deal of thought and effort into making their spaces comfortable and welcoming. Additionally, they are kind and easy to communicate with ~ something we find very important. Their house is in an ideal location because it is within easy striking distance of so much of what one goes to Seattle for. However, Alki Beach and West Seattle have much to offer as well, so be sure to allow yourself some time to explore these communities ~ you won't be disappointed. Go and enjoy!
