It is a gorgeous, historic, brick building with a charming bar and restaurant on the street level. The bartender there was very kind and welcoming. Inside has nice decor with character and felt clean. We happened to stay here during an unprecedented heat wave which made the temperature very uncomfortable as most buildings in the city are not equipped with AC. The location is walking distance to pike place and other areas, however, we experienced an overwhelming number of homeless individuals living directly across the street. They were active throughout the day and night and engaged with us on a regular basis when leaving the apartment. While they ended up being harmless, it did make coming and going from the apartment slightly more difficult and uncomfortable. There was no free parking near the building and even the garage was unsecured and made us worried for the safety of our vehicle at night. We understand it is up to the city to maintain public areas and due to the heat we imagine that was more difficult during our stay. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again, but probably without our car next time.
