GREAT LOCATION and GREAT HOSTS. We were in town for a conference, and it's literally an easy 5 min walk to the Convention Center. Prior to our trip out to Seattle, I had a bunch of questions, and Rachel and Grace always answered in a timely, friendly manner. My friend slept in the bedroom, while I used the pull out couch. With the mattress topper they provided, it was a comfortable bed, and I have neck issues, so that was a pleasant surprise. The washer/dryer (they provide detergent as well as a drying rack) was WONDERFUL, since I didn't have to pack as much for the trip. The location was safe, and so convenient. I discovered that up Capitol Hill (just a 10-15min) there are so many great restaurants, cafes and stores. I ended up spending most of my free time there. I would definitely recommend Rachel and Grace's place, and I would stay there again if I go to Seattle again. From the airport, without traffic, I believe it was about 1/2hr by car. We ate all our meals at restaurants, but the kitchen was stocked with essentials if you were to use it.
