Kathleen's space was wonderful. It was one of the cleanest airbnbs I've ever stayed in, and I've stayed in quite a few.
The space is very nice- spacious and feels like a true home away from home. The kitchen is clean, spacious and equipped with anything you need. There is a keurig to make coffee in the morning. There were useful signs put up around the home indicating what light switches to use, how to turn on the cable, etc. The bathroom shower was great- double shower heads and Kathleen even provided shampoo and conditioner. Kathleen lives upstairs with her family, but the space is very private. The benefit to having her there is that she is always there to help or answer questions.
The neighborhood is residential and is not too close to central Seattle, but not a far drive either. We rented it because my sister lives in the same neighborhood and we needed more space than what her own home allows for. Laurelhurst is a beautiful location, beautiful homes and a really beautiful neighborhood. Walking around the neighborhood is very nice, and you have a great view of the water! It is very close to University of Washington and close to restaurants and shops in the University village area.
We enjoyed our stay so much. Kathleen greeted us warmly, and even provided breakfast items for us the first morning, which was much too kind of her.
I will most definitely stay here again with my family and high recommend it to anyone looking for more of a "home" while visiting Seattle.
