Terrific flat in a quiet neighborhood. Despite it's small size it was cleverly laid out and felt like a much larger space. We also liked that it was above ground (above a garage, in fact), which made it light and airy. The apartment is air-conditioned, which is a rarity in Seattle--and very welcome on those August days! Kitchen was well-equipped, and the bathroom was a good size, with a nice bathtub/shower combo. No TV, but we were able to use the excellent internet speed to stream Netflix on our computer. We also liked having access to our own washer/dryer in the garage downstairs.
Alissa and Arthur were conscientious hosts--during our stay the air quality in Seattle was poor due to forest fires elsewhere in the state. Arthur thoughtfully offered us an air purifier, which made the atmosphere a lot more comfortable.
The neighborhood is quiet and residential. It is a short walk to Lake Washington and a very nice lakefront park. Also good access to the Burke Gilman trail. Lots of decent food shopping within a 5-10 minute drive--including a terrific farm stand that brings in fresh berries daily in season!
