I’m a local and needed a place to stay while remodeling work at my home was delayed and it was so great to have the chance to experience Karl’s place. The view really is captivating and pretty much makes you fall in love with this apartment. It’s not the quietest place during the day but, again, the view seems to make any imperfection disappear. It is also very spacious, the bedroom is large and has plenty of closet space as well as a dresser.
I got to spend two nights here and slept wonderfully. The bed is extremely comfortable. I think it’s the most comfortable mattress I’ve ever slept on! And every morning I would wake up excited to step out of the bedroom to see the view!!
My desire with this location was to have a couple of days to meditate and do my qigong practice in front of the windows and I did just that. It was extremely relaxing and refreshing. I was sad to go but I will certainly be back!
Karl and Arlene were extremely accommodating and made my stay extra special. As mentioned by other reviews, they also include all kinds of wonderful little touches. Organic fruit, Theo chocolate, wine, a selection of drinks in the fridge and even a stick of butter! The kitchen is well stocked too. They even have a cheese grater! That came in handy for me! The fresh flowers were a nice special touch. In the bathroom, they have black washcloths to be used for removing our make-up! What a cool idea! I appreciate the efforts they take to make their guests feel welcomed and appreciated!
It's a great location as well! There is a coffee shop just around the corner that takes less than 5 minutes to walk to and upper Queen Anne is only about a 10-minute walk away. Downtown Seattle is very easy to get to from here too and if you need groceries, Whole Foods is a very easy 10-minute drive.
