Bill’s place is very clean and in a quiet residential area north of Seattle. I stayed here for a few days with my 9 year-old son, and my cousin and his 9 year-old daughter. The area is lovely and very walkable, and is only a 15-20 minute drive to the south side of the city to take in a game at Safeco or Qwest Field. The space is cozy but is a bit tight for 4 people (in our case 2 adults and 2 kids). If you want to stay close enough to Seattle to enjoy much of what the city offers without being in the heart of downtown, then Bill’s place is a great option.
