This place was great for our short trip to Seattle. We took the Rapid Bus to get downtown and back almost every day and the stops are only a block or two away. With 1 bus change, we could get to Ballard and Capital Hill as well. The kitchen has enough supplies to cook small meals and there is local grocery store with a decent selection of items. The road can get busy but it never really got loud enough to disturb us in the apartment. Overall, we found the place comfortable and perfectly situated for our trip.
