This is a perfect location between downtown and capital hill! Everyone we encountered in the building was welcoming and warm.
Homelessness and drug use is an issue in the area but we didn’t have any personal encounters or issues with anyone but occasionally there were homeless people walking by the building and we saw drug paraphernalia in the landscaping. If you want to stay in that area you’ll have that though so I still highly recommend this condo.
As a light sleeper I brought my sound machine just in case but the spot was relatively quite for its close proximity to everything. The access to the buildings laundry and parking garage were a huge plus for us.
We cooked one night with ingredients we got from the market and had everything we needed.
For fellow runners, we suggest checking out Alki Beach, Elliot Bay Trail, and the Green Lake group runs!
