My mother and I stayed at Matt and Jess' place for 5 nights. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very nice and well-appointed. The host (Matt) was quite accommodating. We did have a car. And, the location of the apartment made it easy to commute to downtown Seattle. You definitely need to be able to climb stairs to access the home. Also, it is a basement apartment. So, it can get a little cool. However, there is a central air temperature control that allows you to manage the settings. Overall, it was a great stay and would highly recommend it.
