We had a wonderful time at Kate's place. We were in town looking at colleges for my older daughter and the location could not have been better. Kate was warm and welcoming and went above and beyond expectations. We arrived rather late after long travel from the midwest and Kate offered to pick us up from the MAX light rail station rather have us walk the last mile. Bonus! (My daughter was especially happy with that. I make her walk everywhere.) The place itself is exactly as described in Kate's write up. It is warm and cozy and clean and comfortable with eclectic art on the walls. (It was nice to see the original Mona Lisa.) Kate stocked the fridge and cupboard with a few breakfast essentials which we were very happy to see. All in all a great experience. Thanks Kate!
