Sabina is a thoughtful and helpful hostess, quickly responding to any question we had. The neighborhood is safe and pleasant, consisting of neat craftsman-style homes in a lovely setting atop Ravena Ridge from where the Olympic Mountains can be seen to the west on a clear day. Both public transportation and supermarkets are very accessible by foot. The apartment is well-appointed; the kitchen/dining area is supplied with all the utensils and dishes that we needed for our 4-week stay. The time flew by quickly and we always enjoyed getting back to our "home away from home".
