Marilyn and Cynthia are wonderful hosts! They made our stay special with such little touches as providing coffee, a selection of teas and cream to get us started in the mornings, and turning on the lovely gas stove in our private sitting room every evening so we would come back to a warm, cozy space. The sitting area looks onto a little ravine, with green trees all around and very private and the bed was absolutely heavenly!
The house was easy to find and is quiet and restful, even though it is only about three blocks from a main thoroughfare, which has all the basic amenities and good bus service to the nearest mall and downtown.
We enjoyed a couple of visits upstairs with Marilyn and Cynthia. They have great stories to tell about their travels and about life and it was a pleasure to spend time with them. We know our way around town pretty well, but I'm sure they would be excellent resources for first-time visitors, so don't hesitate. I will definitely be staying with them again the next time I'm in Seattle!
