This place is great if your want to wake up and start exploring the city. 10 min walk to pike place and 10 min walk to space needle. I do not recommend this place if you are planning on sleeping in and relaxing, there is extremely loud noise since 7am everyday from the street next to the apartment. Host provides earplugs but I did not find them to be helpful. Apartment space is great but building had a strange smell all around.
