This is a great home base for exploring Seattle for a few days. The neighborhood feels safe and the apartment is clean and spacious. Good security via keypad locks. There's also a washer dryer available which is very convenient. Go check out neighborhood restaurants and the Ballard Locks are not too far away. See salmon migrating back to spawn at the observation portal - and it's free! Great bed - our hosts even had a bottle of Rose' chilling in the fridge for our arrival! There is no stove but there is a toaster oven and microwave. Also a great rooftop deck overlooking the street where you can relax and unwind.
