Enjoyed our stay at Karen's place...... comfortable place to stay in a lovely area. The outside space was especially lovely and we saw hummingbirds which was amazing. Close to Alki beach but be mindful that 175 steps down and obviously back up..... worth it though as nice restaurants and cafes there which are close when you get to the bottom!. We loved having a drink at the local beer brewery, coffee at Ampersand cafe and evening meals at Pacific Room restaurant. Easy to get across to downtown, Shuttle bus stop to water taxi, we walked, took 30 mins. Supermarket was about a 25 min walk but quite strenuous due to the steep roads, $8 by Uber so very reasonable. Would definitely recommend
