Very cozy, comfortable and secure building! The location is awesome. Lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance. Pike place market is an easy walk. Excellent view from the living room. Like any part of the city, there are a lot of unhoused people on the street. The building itself felt very secure, and had many security measures in place. Be very aware of your surrounding when out and about in the neighborhood after dark. Lots of construction here and there, and shady people.
Be prepared for the city life. There is a night club, Ora, across the street that was very loud from 1-4 am. If you are a light sleeper, bring your ear plugs.
Easy walk to a pharmacy and neighborhood market if you forget any necessities. We walked to the market for a few groceries and cooked dinner in the condo one night. Everything you could need for cooking is supplied. We were especially grateful for the parking space that was included with this rental. We were concerned about parking on the street. Finding a close space, and the safety of leaving the vehicle. The space included is in a secure parking garage, beneath the condo. We were so grateful and happy with that. Driving in Seattle was not for us. We left the car in the garage and took Uber when we wanted to go somewhere far. The hosts were very responsive to questions, and a pleasure to work with. Would definitely consider staying here again in the future.
