I'm not usually a review writing type of person - but I'm making an exception because it is my pleasure to sing the praises of this Air BnB! We've stayed in a good number of Air BnB's across the country and this one was definitely the cream of the crop! A nice quiet neighborhood (I love my sleep), and a short walk from cute breakfast places, bus stops, and little further - the MAX station. Definitely a great spot to use as a home base as you explore the city. Don't be discouraged that it's across the river from downtown. It's a total non-issue. I actually loved getting to see a lot of the city by way of the train. It's also a 25 min Uber drive from the airport. Nice and quick for a big city. The windows in the bedroom do let in what I consider to be a substantial amount of light in the early morning, so perhaps bring a sleep mask if you prefer to sleep in pitch black caves like I do. But seriously, don't think twice about booking here. I felt totally safe walking around in this neighborhood. The hosts were very great about communication. As you've read in other reviews, the binder is totally legit. The fabulous muffins help you survive your first morning (or arriving late at night like we did)! Great kitchen supplies, bathroom amenities, pillows, and coffee selection. My husband will tell you that I have very high standards (for just about everything) and this place absolutely exceeded them (a rare occasion)!
