We loved our stay at Melissa's place. For the price, this place cannot be beat. The property was just as described in the listing. Right in the midst of the University of Washington neighborhood, this property was very walkable to food, bars, a couple markets, and more. I highly recommend Portage Bay Cafe for brunch just a few blocks away.

It was also very commutable by bus to other parts of Seattle. To Pike Place Market, the bus ride was not more than maybe 15 minutes. Overall, the location was very convenient to get around and felt safe.

As a host, Melissa was wonderful. She was always quick to respond throughout the whole process. Check-in was easy. She even was so kind to accommodate our friend and allow 3-guest booking even though it was originally listed for 2 people. Our friend slept on the couch, which was comfortable. Melissa even brought over extra blankets, pillows, and towels for our friend.

The place itself is cute and snug, and provided all the basics. We didn't cook, but would have had what we needed if we wanted to. There are plenty of windows to let in the summer sunshine, but can block out lots of the street noise if closed. Also, the bed is really comfortable!! If you are in Seattle looking for an affordable place to stay, Melissa's place will give you what you need.
