I wanted a place that was close to Seattle Children's hospital while my son had surgery and was able to host family who lived in the area when they came to visit him after he was discharged. Cara's place was perfect! Super clean and a nice layout. Plenty of space to spread out and sit in the living area and the kitchen dining area has plenty of room as well. Having a washer/dryer was a bonus. This is a lower unit of a house as is common in the Seattle area. We never had an issue with noise from above and never crossed paths with any one else who may live in the other parts of the place. To be clear, Cara's place is separate unit with its own entrance. There is also a little area with a table and chairs to sit on outside. The neighborhood is wonderful and I really enjoyed getting out to walk around. Head to the neighborhood coffee shop for a good cup of jo and get any last minute groceries you may need, only a 4 minute walk away. Really! We will most definitely be staying at Cara's place again.
