Hugo's studio is a fantastic place to stay while you're visiting Seattle! It is private, quiet, and well-equipped with kitchen space, a washer/dryer, and a clothes rack (oh, and the bed is super comfy!) It was really easy to get into the space, even though we arrived pretty late at night, and we really appreciated the list he left of places in the neighborhood to visit. If you are looking for a place to stay in Seattle that makes you feel more like a local than a tourist, this is the spot, but we still had an easy time traveling on public transportation to downtown. We had a great time walking around the neighborhood. We had brunch at Rock Creek (one of Hugo's suggestions), but we also recommend a place called Ha! a few doors down from Rock Creek. They serve food late (which was helpful for our 10PM arrival) and had a great time chatting with locals and the bartender. A really nice neighborhood spot!
