A perfect place to use for base camp when exploring Seattle. Neighborhood is fantastic -- 4 or more coffee shops/bakeries within 3 blocks --Swedish pancakes at Pete's Egg, nearby public library -- yoga studio and a neighborhood bar (Gainsbourg) right out of Cheers. Supermarket (Fred Meyer) 3 blocks away. (Pharmaceuticals next to the market). Public transportation (Bus 5X) 50 steps away whisks you downtown in flash .
