We arrived to a cute little garage door adorned with warm yellow tube lights, beckoning us in to a heated refuge with a scrumptious plate of chocolate pecan brownies welcoming us from our late night flight from Chicago.

The room was as seen in the picture, with more amenities than I had imagined (think mini fridge, water jug, hot water boiler, microwave, plates, mugs, cutlery, weighing scale.. do bring your own hair dryer if you are the type that needs it). The bed was comfortable and the room was well insulated and you can adjust the temperature to your own comfort level. Parking was easy with ample street parking at no cost.

Amanda is no stranger to hosting guests, very responsive with emails, and knew how to prepare important notes in advance, like providing wireless codes and compiling maps and travel brochures on things to do around Seattle and WA. We had an amazing stay with Amanda and would love to come back to live with her again, unless I decide to permanently settle down in Seattle!
