Lovely place and lovely host. We enjoyed our stay, especially the view from the guest house and the pretty yard. It's about a 2 mile walk (pleasant if you have the time and the weather cooperates) to the water taxi, which can take you to downtown Seattle, and the house is very close (an easy walk) to Alki beach and the restaurants and shops there. I found that it was wonderful to spend time downtown and then come a relax in West Seattle a more tranquil setting.
