My husband and I stayed at Renee's place for 4 days. We were very late in arriving the first day, but Renee was very accommodating and welcoming. There was a bottle of wine, lots of snacks, coffee and even cream for our coffee! The outside patio and garden were lovely and was for our use. It was easy to get to downtown from west Seattle, we rented a car, I didn't notice nearby public transport. Maggie the small dog was sweet, she visited us while we were sitting outside. She was well behaved and didn't make much noise. We would stay here again.
