Dimple's basement flat was ideal for what I wanted - a base from which to get to know the new city that I'd moved to; there was plenty of space, a good kitchen and lots of storage available. One weekend morning there was one minor issue (caused by the local fire department!!) and Dimple was very quickly able to figure out what was going on and resolve the problem. Both downtown and Fremont/Ballard are easily accessible by bus and it was a great place to explore the city from but also come back to and have some peace and quiet
