Susan and Jeff have built a beautiful modern, roomy suite. While there is virtually no natural light they have put excellent lighting in making it bright and warm. Having access to a washer/dryer is always a bonus for us. Magnolia is a lovely quiet neighborhood. We did not have a car and didn't miss having a car. There is a bus stop (#24) 60 yards away and runs every 30 minutes. We arrived in Seattle by train and took the bus directly to their place. You can be downtown in 20 minutes hassle free. We love to walk as much as possible. If you do, it is important to know that you are on top of a hill! We walked down the hill to the "village" where you will find a grocery store and a couple of restaurants. Jeff warned us that it was a long downhill. The first time we walked back up the very long hill and then we learned that you can also catch the #24 back up the hill! We loved the neighborhood and our home away from home.
