This was a fabulous place to stay. The most breathtaking view! The location was perfect for getting around. We walk everywhere and were able to navigate the parts of the city we wanted to from here. Seattle is a challenge to walk if your not in good shape! Lots of steep hills and stairs. There is a stair case to enter the apartment. It wasn't hard to navigate. There is no AC and we did visit at a very hot time. The bedrooms do not have windows and the windows and doors in the living are do not have screens. Being from the east coast this was shocking to us but we were able to have the windows open to help with air circulation without too many bugs. Fans were provided. Cathy provided many comfort items and was very responsive.
