Jay was a great host. I only stayed for a short period, but he was very flexible with my schedule and gave me and my girlfriend a warm welcome. Everything was clean and there were no major complaints.
The surrounding neighborhood is absolutely beautiful. We kept falling in love with every house we saw along the way. There's also a great view of Lake Washington and the lakefront from this area. Lots of grand rolling hills and quaint cafes and eateries in this area.
For those who do want to cook in the apartment, just know that the sauté pan available is about 8 inches in diameter, so don't expect to cook a dish that's so large.
