I had a lovely time in Seattle, and Samantha's apartment more than met my needs for the 6 days I was in town! It is centrally located, close to several good bars and restaurants, walking distance to a few of the common tourist attractions (the Needle, MoPop, Chihuly, Pike Place), and also close to public transit/rideshare accessible when you want to get to other neighborhoods. I walked to Elliot Bay (the bookstore) in about 30 minutes, which may be longer than some want to be bothered with, but I'm from NYC and we walk everywhere! Long story short, it is a great location for first timers in Seattle, like me.
The apartment itself was clean and as advertised (living/bedroom is carpeted; travel with slippers if you prefer not to go barefoot in shared spaces). The washing machine + dishwasher were a plus. The king sized bed was comfy and the TV came Netflix equipped. The internet was fast and strong -- I worked 2 of the 6 days from the apartment with no issues. Would happily rebook.
