Rachel's place is fantastic! I wasn't expecting it to be a stand alone home; I must have misread the description. The bedroom and bathroom are on the first floor, and the open living room/kitchen/dining/desk area is on the second floor. Each area is roomy and comfortable, and tastefully decorated. The bed is super comfortable; I never sleep as well as I did here when I'm away from home. Also, the kitchen is well stocked with great kitchen ware, so staying here for my business trip made it feel very much like home.

The neighborhood is great, too. Family homes line the streets, and from the front of the house you can see Lake Washington. Free street parking is plentiful and convenient, too.

All in all, this was a great experience. I'm looking forward to coming back!
