Note this is my very first foray into the Airbnb world. I'm so glad we chose this particular listing and host - We loved staying at Karen's! We were here for a three-night weekend and couldn't have been more pleased with this lovely gem. We can't wait to stay here again! Also note that "We" consisted of two brothers + two wives. The only reason I say this is that from prior experience one needs to make sure that when sharing one bathroom you all get along :) The gist of this review is that we loved the house, we loved our hostess, and we would definitely stay again. 10/10 If you would like to read on though, here are some Additional details below. Getting there/Location: Easy enough with the GPS, and made even easier with ample pre-arrival communication from Karen. Roughly 8 minutes to fairgrounds, 10minutes to city center. We loved being close to everything! Oh. And it was a short walk or quick drive to either Grocery Outlet or Fred Meyers for any kind of restocking needs. The hostess: Prior to arrival, I was a bit nervous. Karen was patient enough to answer my questions and she was always relatively quick to respond. We had the pleasure of meeting her in person when we arrived. She is a gracious hostess and had put out some fresh flowers. What a nice touch! She told us a little bit about the house and we enjoyed learning a little backstory of the house prior to her purchasing it. She takes wonderful care of the place. She is always available to assist as she lived on the premises, but always gave us our space too. The home: House was clean, well-stocked, well-appointed. Separate entry to the rented space. Accurately described, homey, and charming. Bonus points for the red accents as I do love red :) Cool/hot on thermostat, fireplace, patio - loved it all. I would stay here any time of the year. Didn't get to use the TV as we were out all day and just cooked and visited with each other at night. Wifi access was quick. Some people mentioned the train. We heard it a couple of times, but it was distant enough to where it wasn't a bother to us, or we were already up. I recommend earplugs for light sleepers. Kitchen/Dining room I loved that Karen has the kitchen stocked with some basic things to get her guests started. We got in late in the evening and we're grateful to be able to make a simple breakfast the next morning - Very important when attending an all-day convention. And Yes it has a coffee maker :) we loved being able to eat in and visit at the dinner table. We hand-washed throughout the weekend but there is also a dishwasher available. Sleeping arrangements: Accurately described. We were comfortable and had lots of room to move around or hang out. For us two couples: there is a wall...
