Very clean and very comfortable for 4 people. Did use was washer/dryer bc weather was hot. We did cook a bit but on vacation I like to try the local food plus we were out most of the day. We used the public transportation system to get around and nice there was a bus stop out front. Also there was wi-fi. Walk to Kerry Park for spectacular view of downtown and Mt. Rainer. Also we walked to Seattle Center in about 20 minutes. Shops and restaurants along Queene Anne were fun as was the Thursday market-fruit cheaper than at Pike Market, and some good food booths if you wanted to eat dinner there. There is a Safeway store a half block past the Trader Joe. We would stay again. We didn't meet The host just the pooches. Enjoy your stay!
