This is a clean, efficient, practical place in a wonderful neighborhood. There is easy access to I-5, and if you walk around a little you will see the coolest houses as well as great views of the Olympics, Mt. Ranier and adjacent Cascades, and the downtown. There are dozens upon dozens of food options within 10/12 minutes as well. There is a chill park - I think it's Reservoir Park - about ten or so blocks away that is great for running/walking/people watching. And I never even made it to the lake. These folks are also good doggy hosts!
