Loved my stay at Minerva Inn. I chose the Sage room because it appeared slightly larger than the neighboring Saffron room and had more surface area with the counter and banquet to place my stuff. One note for light sleepers/nappers ... the laundry room (which you can use which is fantastic!) shares a wall with the Sage room. So when they are in use, it is quite loud. Wasn't an issue for me until my Saffron room neighbors washed what sounded like four pairs of shoes around 6:00 a.m. But that was a minor annoyance in an otherwise wonderful stay. The room is nicely appointed, but the special touches of a vase of flowers, chilled water and orange juice, bowl of fruit, makeup wipes, heated floors ... Michael and Bill have thought of everything. The location is perfect, many nice restaurants within walking distance. It's a lovely neighborhood and I felt safe walking solo at night. Seattle itself is very walkable, you can walk everywhere if you have the time. On different days, I walked from the house to the Market and Pioneer Square or the house to MoPop and the Space Needle. Each was around an hour of meandering to the destination. I never walked back, though ... all uphill!
