I was in Seattle working while house hunting so I spent a fair amount of time in Brian and Kylie's studio during the day and it was perfect!

From the moment I walked in: it was cold and raining outside, they had already turned a heater on with spa music playing on low! You don't get that kind of greeting at a hotel. Felt relaxed right away.

The pictures, while accurate, make the place look smaller than it is. I was surprised how roomy it was. They are great hosts and very considerate, they asked me a few times about the noise as the studio is in a basement. I consider myself sensitive to noise but even when working without music, writing in absolute silence, at most I would hear a floorboard creak or a footfall hear and there. Quiet music - never heard anything.

Neighborhood is very safe, great view of the mountains on the street, easy parking and from driving around all over Seattle looking at places - it's centrally located and easy to get anywhere you want to go.

It is an apartment to yourself, so it had everything, and was well stocked. I didn't cook in but stove looked great and all the pots and pans were there, I was just on the go at nights, so didn't try it.

It was a great experience, was very happy to find it, and I would stay with them again!
