Staying at Sheryl's house was a pleasant experience. We were coming from Portland and bringing our bikes. She made room in her basement and allowed us to store them there with ease. The location of the house is super close off of I-5 and near lots of shops and restaurants. You can easily walk to a variety of places to shop and eat. It is a great location between the University district, Fremont, and Ballard. Sheryl makes you feel comfortable in her home and has a lot of recommendations to offer on what to do in Seattle. We had a beautiful view from our little room of the city.
