We had a great short trip to Seattle and staying at Alan's place made it quite easy to get to where we needed. Overall the place was very clean, instructions were detailed, definitely worked our thighs with the multiple floors. Not a bad thing. There were great spots nearby for breakfast, coffee, and dinner. Many within walking distance. We didn't get a chance to make it to the zoo or walk around Green Lake, but overall we had a great experience. Make sure your rental car isn't huge. We had a small SUV and parking worked out perfect. We'd definitely recommend this location and consider going back.
