Wonderful stay in a cozy area of Wallingford
The house was just as pictured/described - it featured a view of Lake Union from the front porch, had upleveled features in the house like heated floors and a rain shower in the bathroom, and tasteful design throughout. Great communication with Stina and I loved the recommendations for things to do and places to check out in the area captured in their book. Highly recommend, and would love to stay again when I am back in Seattle.
