My wife and I had a great time while visiting West Seattle (Alki). The location is close to shopping and restaurants. The host was very communicative and the flat we rented was very clean with amazing views of Elliot Bay. Alki Brach is right across the street and there is plenty to do. The water taxi is close-by and we took the ferry across the Bay into downtown Seattle. Pike Place Market is a short walk from the Bainbridge Ferry Terminal with lots of shopping and sightseeing. Overall it was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend this home. We will definitely be back.
