Jon and Kathleen are great hosts, they are easy going and nice, they have a binder with all the information you will need, including recommended places to eat near the house and how to move around Seattle. The house is very neat, you have a private area all for yourself (including a private bathroom) and the neighborhood is very calm. The best way to move around if you are a tourist is by subway and there is a subway station just a short walk from the house. It really is a great option for young travelers and the house cats are a big bonus since they are very friendly. If we ever plan a trip back to Seattle, we won’t think twice on booking this room again.
