We loved our stay here. Great place with ample space and comfort for a short -- or even -- extended getaway. Breakfast was provided every morning and consisted of a tasty scone, granola, milk (even soy!), yogurt, and fresh berries. The place was spotless, had thoughfully detailed instructions/messages, and included amenities such as DVD/TV (though no cable) with many movies, wi-fi, an impressive library of eclectic books. Towels were provided as were some toiletries/shampoo/soap etc. Since the apartment is below ground, the amount of natural light was somewhat limited but despite being very particular about lighting, I would have no reservation at all about recommending it. A car is probably important as public transportation in Seattle is modest and to see the sites efficiently you do really need one. The entire rental experience was seamless and excellent.
