We were satisfied with the location of the apartment next to the Seattle Center since much of what we planned to do was close by. However, we had a very frustrating experience during arrival that had a negative domino effect on the rest of our short trip. The check-in instructions and code we were provided were incorrect so we were not able to access the apartment until after 7pm. There was also significant construction happening inside the building which prevented access. We also were told to park in a specific parking spot with access beginning at 2pm (I confirmed this a month prior to our reservation) but the cleaner was there late and I had to find street parking and move our car three times so that we didn't get ticketed, towed, or broken into.
I am also not satisfied with the support that the host Emma provided me during check in when I called, texted, and messaged through the AirBnB app to help me troubleshoot entering the apartment. We made the best of it and I'm thankful that our vehicle didn't get towed or broken into but if I had known that these issues would have come up we would not have chosen to stay at this location.
Other points to include: it's an updated one-floor/first-floor apartment and there are no stairs (which is a plus for accessibility) but there are several noticeable subpar improvements including in the bedroom and bathroom (water stains, I smelled musty/mildew, and doors not closing all the way). There is one bed behind french doors but the doors would not close. You could hear neighbors in the building but no street noise. Very walkable, lots of great restaurants nearby, parking spot is a plus (if it's available when you arrive), and a view of the Space Needle when you take 3 steps outside the front door.
