I was here for a conference and brought my spouse along so he could enjoy visiting the city. Cara's property was a great home base for both of us.

Cara provided us with complimentary wine and coffee (with half and half in the refrigerator), plus packets of Justin's peanut butter that were handy as a snack. She was friendly and communicative throughout the process but without being intrusive. The property is stunning. It's a single large bedroom/kitchen/living area with bathroom, like a studio apartment, above a garage--but it is in immaculate condition and has windows on all four sides. Basically everything the photos promise. The kitchen is pretty well stocked, with oils, vinegar, spices, some condiments, and tools for doing just about anything. The bed is very comfortable, and the bathroom has a great stand-in shower. The TV has a lot of viewing options if you're feeling like staying in. Wi-fi worked great.

The neighborhood is quiet. It's a few blocks from two bus routes (the 15 and the 20) which have pretty good frequency, and about 2.5 miles from downtown walking/biking. A Fred Meyer grocery store is a little over a mile away.
