The area was very convenient, even though we had no car. QFC is just about 1 -1.5 miles away. Just far enough from Capital Hill to be peaceful, but close enough we could walk easily to find a little action if we wanted to. Even though there is a brewery next door to the rental, the hours are very reasonable & it wasn't a super-loud environment. They are closed early in the week & wind down by about 8pm or so - even on weekends they close quite early (before 9pm, I believe). We never lost sleep because of the noise & patrons were considerate & friendly. We even popped over for a couple of beers during our stay. Very few transients in the area (unlike our first stay in Belltown where they are camping on every corner & very inconsiderate).
The host (David) was super-responsive & very considerate of our time & privacy. If you need anything, all you have to do is email or text him. He responds quite quickly. He is open to input as well & seems to want to make his guest's stay as pleasant as possible.
