What a gem! This loft was the absolute perfect spot for our anniversary getway. Walking into the space was better than the pictures, the space is warm and the energy of the old building is almost dizzying. All of the unique little touches around the space made it the perfect home away from home. The furniture is comfortable and the space has just about everythign you could need. The only thing I could have used that wasn't there was a few more cooking utensils and another skillet, but I was still able to prepare a delicious meal with our market finds (super bonus that Pike Place is within walking distance). As parents, my husband and I don't often get into the city so it was fabulous to be able to be right in the heart of things while still enjoying the comforts of home.
One word of caution: heed the note on the fire escape door!!! We actually locked ourselves out there and we had to climb up and ask the upstairs tenant if he could come down through the loft and let us back in. Thank the universe that we had happened to leave the front door unlocked at the time. Even though it was a nerve-racking experience, it added to the memories of the weekend, and the balcony is a great spot to take in the ambiance of the city.
Leela was very responsive but not at all intrusive; sometimes hosts leave pages of check-out instructions and space rules but that was not the case here. She obviously expects her space to be respected and offers that in resturn. All told, we would defintiely recommend the loft and hope to visit again in the future.
