The loft is really nice and located in a peaceful neighborhood. There is a playground one block down the hill which is very nice for young kids. The Woodland park zoo is also very close. Even though the terrace is small, it was really nice to have and my 3 year old daughter wanted to eat there all the time. There is everything you need in the kitchen so we were able to cook our own food during most of our stay. Although I did not have the chance to talk with Tory very much, she seemed a very nice person and was responsive to my e-mails and text messages before our arrival. There is always parking in the street nearby and it is easy to get downtown Seattle without too much traffic even during rush hour. The place is ideal for people who like to cycle or run in the city…especially if you like short steep climbs! Overall, we were happy with the place but I don't recommend the sofa bed for adults.
