We stayed in Michael's studio apartment for three nights and found it clean, comfortable, and very convenient. Michael was prompt to respond to our questions prior to the trip, and the photos of the apartment provided an accurate idea of what the unit had to offer. We especially appreciated the private parking spot in front of the unit, and had no trouble getting a ride from Lyft within minutes of calling. (The cost to the Space Needle, MoPOP, Chihuly Glass Museum, Aquarium, Harbor Tour, Great Wheel ran about $13 each way. We paid more to go to Pike's Market and back, but it was during peak hours) There is also a city bus stop on the corner but we did not use it. We only ate nearby once, at Two Doors Down, which was about 2 blocks away. Great burgers and beer, and the homemade root beer was delicious.
We had read some reviews of the apartment prior to arriving that mentioned noise from upstairs neighbors and the fact that there were no chairs except for 2 bar stools. We brought a couple of bag chairs that we take camping and they worked fine for someplace to sit to watch tv or read. We didn't notice much noise from upstairs during the night, but it may have been masked by the sound of the portable fan that we ran on high through the night. Our single complaint (not really a complaint, more of an observation) was that the queen bed was a little soft for our taste, and because it was made up with king-size sheets, we felt we were struggling with a lot of extra fabric throughout the night. But we still slept pretty well and it would not keep us from renting this place again.
Overall, it was a very good experience and we would definitely recommend it to a single person or a couple as a great place to set up home base while exploring Seattle. Thanks, Michael. We had a great trip!
