Mollie and Dan's place was amazing and we hope to go back soon! The apartment is newly renovated, really nicely decorated, comfortable, and super clean. They thought of everything possible to make our stay perfect. There is a nice deck and a beautiful sea view from the window. I like this part of Alki because the view is of the Puget Sound and islands and mountains, facing away from the city, so you forget you are in the city. But if you walk a few blocks you are right on the Alki Beach retail strip and have everything you need. We even saw a river otter walk down the street one day!
