Central location with an amazing view!
Check-in and -out was very simple with a lockbox at the front of the building. After going up a few flights of stairs to the top floor, you'll see a mat welcoming you to your temporary home on the edge of Capitol Hill.
It's a pretty quiet building with the most noise being the highway, which starts to feel more like a light noise machine as you become accustomed.
You'll be a 10 minute walk away from the Light Rail station and less than five minute walk to multiple bus stops (hot tip: download the OneBusAway app to get the most accurate bus updates if you're feeling techie OR use Google Maps). There are also plenty of Lime and Jump bikes to take for a spin. If you'd like to see Seattle by foot, you're a quick 20 minute walk to Downtown & Pike Place Market and about 25 minute walk to Seattle Center.
Parker's kindly set up the unit so you can stay in and cook your own meals if you please. There are lots of places nearby to eat, though, if you're looking to go out. The Starbucks just east is the typical friendly, neighborhood-y coffeehouse you're used to, and local shop Analog Coffee is just a few seconds closer and offers the hipster atmosphere Seattle's known for. Beyond coffee, fantastic restaurants within walking distance are Machiavelli (authentic affordable [!] Italian) and Captain Blacks (drinks with better-than-your-average bar food, plus a killer patio). Head on over to the Pike/Pine streets on Capitol Hill if you're feeling adventurous. Needless to say, there's lots to explore within a few blocks!
There is a TV however were not instructions on how to watch anything sans bringing your own HDMI cable and laptop. Be sure to check in with Parker if this is a deal breaker for ya!
The only warning I'll give on this unit is that it's located in a very hilly area. If you're not used to walking up and down hills, bring comfy shoes and expect a bit of a burn after romping around.
We're absolutely recommending this unit to anyone we know planning a visit to Seattle!
