Leland's accommodation truly embodies the original spirit of the sharing economy. He's taken a spare room in his own home and transformed it into a cozy oasis in the heart of one of Seattle's best and most culturally diverse neighborhoods. You're not only 5 minutes from Link light rail, but 5 minutes from charming downtown Columbia City, with its restaurants, coffee shops, stores, theater, bakery, and more. Only caveat is the stairs leading to the room are rather narrow and steep, but that wasn't an issue for me. I had a thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable stay, and Leland was a conscientious and gracious host.
