This is a great place a short walk from Alki Beach. Our family of four stayed over a long weekend while we visited Seattle and went to a concert. It gave us the space we needed to relax between outings. Having the parking behind the house made it really easy to load/unload and we didn't have to spend extra time looking for parking on the street. The house does sit on a busy street, but with the bedrooms in the back of the house, the noise of the street didn't bother us. The seating in both gardens was perfect to enjoy the cool mornings before heading out. It is a lovely place to stay and one we would consider again on a return trip.
