the other reviews are right-- it's one of the better neighborhoods-- and the parking spot was a lifesaver for me (with a small car)-- the two locks (downstairs and upstairs) are made only slightly tricky by different locking protocols (upstairs hit the engage-lock image after you go out-- downstairs just hit the logo at the very top)-- but the self-check-in and the unit itself were wonderful-- a sweetly well-equipped entire apartment. I could have used a step-stool to get into the deep Japanese-style bathtub-- but that's trivial-- someone taller than 5'6" may not have any trouble... I've never stayed in a cleaner place and to have an extra room with a desk and smaller bed was a great extra! I loved the unit. And the art by Elliott's mom (do I have that right?) was for me (an artist myself) a true magnetic attraction... If you want to be near the top of Capitol Hill you'll be happy-- pretty easy run both to downtown Seattle and to the UW and med centers.
