My 5-day stay in Seattle was incredibly wonderful, and my experience of this guesthouse was idyllic! I've stayed at great spots before via AirBnb and, I really think this place was the very best ever!!
From the moment I walked in - and the keyless entry/exit is really great!! - I felt at home!. Super clean, super tidy, super stocked on all levels, ready to welcome me like a red carpet had been rolled out. I was with a local friend who'd once had a VRBO property, and she was very impressed at how fabulous this guesthouse was, how well they'd taken care of every detail. On the coffee table there is a comprehensive guestbook filled with everything you need to know about your stay in town - such an excellent, considerate way to welcome guests.
The king-size bed is very comfortable and the linens are very soft and cozy. 2 great fans to keep cool, there was some rare hot weather in Seattle going on! The bathroom is very pretty and I really loved the designer sample-size body lotions to choose from + other amenities like counter hand soap/lotion, shower dispensers for shampoo, conditioner, bath gel. And there is a hair dryer, which I really appreciated as I don't travel with one.
I may have been most impressed with the kitchen and its own inviting charm. Well stocked everything with which to cook great meals, which I did on the Sunday for my family who lives in town. The indoor-outdoor bar-table is genius and was the most perfect setting for our meal and time together (and also my morning coffee and journaling by the way). That night we played Sushi Go card game; there is a hutch in the living room filled with books and games and everything else you may need for the most perfect, most fun guesthouse stay. Ever.
Also, great TV options which I actually never used, so it's on my next-time list. Compost bucket in the kitchen, both recycle/trash bins, and little instructions throughout the home to advise on everything, so nice!
The neighborhood is lovely, I always felt safe, and it's very quiet which I really appreciated. Natalie and Alex kept in touch to make sure I had everything I needed. What a wonderful world it would be if all AirBnb places were this perfect. Thank you so much Natalie and Alex, I hope to return soon!
