Great location, but it also depends on if you're willing to walk a bit. We didn't use an Uber once or take public transportation except for getting to the Airbnb from the airport. It takes a bit of time to make it downtown or to the Seattle Space Needle, but we enjoyed visiting different spots along the way. No complaints from me.
-There are plenty of food places nearby and the neighborhood is quite beautiful. I would recommend grabbing a coffee and taking a walk around the area if you have some downtime. Also, Raygun Lounge was a great spot to relax, have a beer and play some arcade/table top games.
-Nancy was quick at responding and the place is clean and as pictured!
