This was my first Airbnb experience, and I have to say, Roland has set the bar extremely high! The house is amazing and perfectly located in the very walkable neighborhood of Green Lake. It's easy to get to downtown Seattle from here as well. I stayed in the Blue Suite and it's exactly as pictured, super clean and cozy, with a comfy bed, an entire wall of built-ins for your stuff, plus a spacious closet that even has a desk in it should you need a nook in which to do some work (there's a window in there so it shouldn't get too claustrophobic). It's been hot in Seattle lately, so Roland already had a fan set up in the room, which was great. The bedrooms are upstairs and the common areas are downstairs. The entire house is incredibly clean, including the kitchen and the (shared) bathrooms. There are two bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs; both have showers. The common areas include a living room with comfy couch and TV, a dining room with a giant table, white board and map (in which guests have put flags to mark where they're from), a full kitchen, and a back patio. As for Roland himself, what a great and interesting guy! He definitely has some stories to tell, so if you have time to chat with him for a bit, you won't regret it! He was incredibly welcoming and accommodating, and you can really tell that he wants to make sure every guest has an enjoyable and comfortable stay. Chocolate and sparkling water were waiting in my room when I arrived, and he even made me fresh veggie juice with his impressive industrial juicer one morning! He's a great communicator and got back to me quickly each time I contacted him regarding my reservation. The only thing he forgot to mention beforehand is that his neighbor is very protective of the parking spots on the street in front of her house! That's really on her and not him though, as those spots are public property, but if you are going to have a car during your stay, make sure you park in front of his house, and not the one to the left of his (while facing them from the street). Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here, and will definitely be back on future visits to Seattle. Sitting around the table the first night with Roland and the other guests, hanging out and drinking wine with people I'd just met, I was happily reminded of the times I stayed in hostels in Europe. It was even better than those days though, because I had my own room, and it felt like I was staying with an old friend, rather than renting a room from a stranger. Roland's place tends to be booked up a lot, and I now know why...I feel very lucky he had availability on the exact dates I needed! Thank you so much Roland, see you next...
