Michael was very responsive before and during the trip towards any questions we had. He also allowed us to check in early. The apartment is small but comfortable, very clean, quiet, and a good location. It is about a 15-25 min walk to the main parts of Capitol Hill for dining and other fun, and it took us 45 mins to walk to Pike Place (this was fine with us, but you can also walk ~20 mins and then take the light rail or take a bus from a few blocks away). However there were also plenty of places to eat and grocery stores close to the apartment.
