This was my first trip to Seattle so I wasn't sure what area to stay in. Kimberley's was the best of both worlds. There is a Starbucks on the corner, local coffee houses, several lower priced restaurant options, grocery stores,
brewhouses and a hair salon all in 10 minutes walking. I personally found Uber to be more convenient than walking to 3rd (which is also full of homeless/drug users) to get to the public transportation. The condo's location is quite which can be hard to find and important since you sleep with the windows open. I would rather stay in a quieter area and visit the louder ones:). The furnishings are comfortable and the place is clean. There is an elevator which is another plus. Kimberly is also super responsive and gave great tips on where to go etc.
