What a perfect home away from home

I needed an in-city retreat, just a little break from my own home and stresses. I LOVE this spot. I felt like I was staying at a friend's place, but had the privacy and my own kitchen.The apartment is beautifully lit and colored. It's thoughtfully decorated -- love the art and the books next to the bed, which are perfect for reading before sleep. A lovely garden view in both the front and back -- I hope I can return sometime in the spring. The kitchen is well stocked with just about everything you'll need. The shower stall is a little small, but given everything else in the place, it's easy to withstand. So many vacation homes feel cold and soulless. Garnett's place is the exact opposite.

Wonderful Location and Host!

Fantastic location for exploring Wallingford and Fremont, with bus stops to get to most anywhere within a 5-15 minute walk! A small, quaint location that had just what we needed for our time there! The location is shared with two other "apartments" connected to the house, one occupied by Garnett, the host. During the three weeks here, we never heard any noises from the other parts of the home. Garnett was an amazing host! Very responsive and considerate. She even dropped off fresh-picked blueberries for us one night which was incredibly sweet! Overall, the property suited our needs perfectly for the price point and we loved our time here! Would absolutely recommend!

A Second Home in Seattle

We wish that we had a second home like Garnett's place! The sound of the fountain under the weeping cherry tree was welcoming, as was Garnett herself. The furnishings in the one-bedroom apartment were appropriate to the 1920's wood-framed house, but very thoughtfully laid out to make the space inviting and comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped; every need has been anticipated! We loved the decorations that we might have acquired on our travels ourselves. All this care made it second nature to care for the apartment as if it were our own. Garnett's description of the location, its proximity to restaurants, and the strollable neighborhood are all accurate. This is the first time I've stayed someplace where the host has put a nosegay of garden flowers on the bathroom sink!

The Perfect Retreat

I was delighted with our stay in this lovely little bungalow inside a historic home in a great neighborhood. Everything was in bloom and the welcoming garden and fountain was so soothing. We attended a family graduation at Seattle University and this was close enough and so great to come back to after the the traffic and parking in the city. Our host was lovely and thoughtfully provided us with many comforts of home. The bed was quiet and the room was nice and dark. The electric fireplace was a romantic addition as were the fresh roses out of her garden. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
