Ruby’s house was perfect for us and we would definitely again. We were an extended family of 2 couples and 2 singles. She added an air bed to one of the double rooms to accommodate the 2 singles.. a little tight but generous sized beds. The kitchen/living space is brights and inviting and we gathered there often. We ran short of time to use the rooftop but Ruby has cushions, a gas heater, fridge and all you need for outdoor drinks and dining with an amazing view.
Huge washing machines are well located at garage level.
The location suited us as were were in Seattle for sightseeing and Varsity rowing at UW. We Ubered everywhere as it’s a little far to walk to key sites with limited time.
The local shops were fine for supplies and beer etc. and Ruby leaves a generous supply of basics. We did stock up at Pike Place Market & for fruit, dips, bread & wine from DeLaurenti also Wholefoods near Apple HQ.
Tourist Tips:
Day 1 Buy the combo Space Needle, Chihuly Garden’s and Museum of Pop Culture ticket (they all share the same block) then walk down to the Sculpture Park and along the water to Pike Place Market for a late lunch. Loved Market Grill for fresh fish sandwiches at the bar or seating outside.
The Boeing tour is a 30 minute drive from Ruby’s. It’s 90 minutes and we’d all recommend. Again, we Ubered there and back.
Pre-book the Amazon Spheres timed entry visit. It’s only open to the public 2 Saturdays per month and sells out 30 days prior.
Nordstrom have their flagship store in Seattle also Baby & Co and Tokokaelo are for fashion lovers.
Thanks Ruby, hope to stay again.
