We were relocating from Europe to the US and we spent one month at Stephanie's place. Stephanie went above and beyond to answer all the questions we had (and, considering our situation - it was a lot!) and did everything to accommodate our long-term stay. It felt like we found a friend not a landlord in Stephanie's face.

The suite is lovely, plenty of space and it has all you need - even a small kitchen. The backyard is amazing (squirrels and hummingbirds besides the lovely green grass and the plants!) and it's nice to relax outside during the day or have a dinner in the evening.

The neighborhood is pieceful and completely walkable. You can walk to many shops/restaurants/coffee places on Greenwood Ave or 85th St. There are bus stops near by that can take you to Downtown (from Greenwood Ave or Aurora) or if you opt for driving and want to rent a car - there are many car2go smarts in the area. A Zipcar lot is really close, too (look for Chase parking lot on N 85th St and Greenwood). One of the best Seattle lakes and parks - Green Lake - is 15 min walking distance.

We'd recommend Stephanie as a host and her place to stay to anyone who is visiting for a short-term or is looking for a place to stay for few weeks.
