I stayed for 2 months during the Covid Pandemic May&June while I waited to look for an apartment. The apartment was meticulously clean. I worked from home and you can literally be locked in for 2 mos and still smile when you wake up and look outside. If I was in a subpar place it would have easily gone crazy quickly. I would say my review may be even more significant because my experience was almost 24/7 in the apt.
That being said it is equally as great for a short term stay.
Hands down the description of the view in the posting does not do it justice. Completely unobstructed, panoramic IMAX view of Puget Sound, snow capped Olympic Mountains, and the large boats that carry shipping containers from across the Pacific Ocean - all close enough to touch. You wake up to this every morning and can see even when you walk in the door and from the kitchen while you make your cup of coffee. At night - the sunsets are breathtaking. It isn’t a ‘view’ that some places describe when it is from the balcony but not necessarily from inside the apartment.
Staying here raised the bar significantly while I looked for my own place.
The apartment and the amenities were just as fantastic as the other reviews say, but I obviously wanted to make sure the view was highlighted.
Only comments - kitchen looks like it may have a lot of cupboard space but it is already occupied. I had to empty a drawer to put snacks in. I suggested removing the knives and cooking supplies in a countertop container and butcher block.
Set of 4 dishes and could have a few more. Otherwise the dishwasher is used a lot. Having a wager & dryer with laundry soap was key for my length of stay.
You don’t need a car - but if you do, parking is tough. The meters are 4 hr max with extension option, but then you need to remember. The parking garages are not really close by but quite a few blocks away. Thankfully Seattle (amazing) turned off all the meters due to Covid.
Again - you don’t need a car at this location.
Highly recommend! Even for solitary confinement!
