Marcus is an amazing host. He was able to accommodate our request to check-in early, and warmly welcomed us when we arrived. A quick tour of the studio (which is lovely, comfy and as pictured), and we were on our own to explore. The location is perfect for many reasons. It's an easy and inexpensive commute from the airport on the LINK, which stops right at S. Edmunds with a short walk up the hill to studio. On our way we spied PCC, a wonderful grocery store that we stopped in several times during our stay. The LINK gets you right downtown in no time. In the neighborhood, we enjoyed great meals at Super Six and The Spice Room, and a long walk along Lake Washington. This was our first Airbnb booking and it was a definite success.
