Nick and Esther’s place was lovely; I highly recommend staying with them. It was perfectly clean, with great amenities. Heated floors and a view into the private backyard made their place feel like a cozy den. They have really invested in the space, and the care they have for their home, as well as their guests, shows.
Wallingford is a great area with good food and drinks nearby. Walking the neighborhood alone made me want to move to Seattle. If you are looking for a place to get a sense of Seattle, you have found it!
