we really appreciated how close this place was to the light rail. we were able to take the light rail straight from the airport to the temple and it was one block away. there were tons of restaurants nearby. The Seattle lookout tower was within walking distance. Everything was so close by we didn't have to rent a car. Mike was extremely helpful and hospitable. we never went with out tea and we had a simple breakfast available. It's a great place to stay for people on a budget. highly recommend it.
