This is a beautiful loft in an incredible historic building that we loved staying in. Everything was clean, and Leela was a very responsive host. You really are in the oldest part of the city, and it is located near so many things (the train, the ferry to Bainbridge Island, a short walk to Pike Place Market). The space really is quite large, and we were able to comfortably spread out for the few days we were there. We did have a small hiccup with check-in when we got there, but Leela was VERY quick to respond to us, and she offered alternate accommodations and a refund for a night to make up for the issue we had. Things happen, and you just have to go with the flow :) As some of the other reviews mentioned, there is a small camp of homeless people a block down (NOT right next door), but in our minds, this is (unfortunately) what comes with being in a big city. We never felt unsafe, and there weren't any issues for us (it reminded us a lot of San Francisco). However, the loft is located near a bar where it could get very loud at night. But again, we live in a big city ourselves, and we are used to noise, and so all we did was turn all the fans on to drone out the sound, and we slept without issue. I'd recommend the space for those who really want to stay in a part of Seattle history.
