We had a wonderful time in Seattle visiting family and enjoying the beauty. The weather was beautiful for a week and then came the northwest heat wave. Seattle is no place to be when it is hot, because there is a real inability to mitigate the heat. Staying at Jeffrey's studio was a great place to anchor our visit. It is beautiful place in a beautiful community. We loved walking around Magnolia, Discovery Park (which includes a lighthouse), and even walking down to the Ballard Locks. Jeffrey is a very welcoming host and took good care of us, except he could not control the weather and make the heat go away. The only thing we would have liked was to know the house rules before we arrived. Reading all of the wonderful reviews for this property makes it seem that our concern is not shared by many others. That said, I would recommend asking for a copy of those rules before making your decision. If you are okay with them, you will enjoy your stay. Jeffrey will see to it.
