Location and Price are a great match. We walked and used public transportation to reach all of our destinations (Pike Place, Pacific Science Museum, EMP, Space Needle, Grocery Store, etc.) It was a couple blocks from the bus depot, and a few more to the light-rail which will take you directly from the airport to downtown Seattle for $3. You'll have to pay for parking, so if you don't want public transportation, be aware parking is atrocious but doable.

David was a great host. He left us a stocked fridge, treats, wine, and gave us directions to all the tourist locations we needed. Laundry is $1 each for washing and drying in the complex, and David provided the detergent. He also has a small but nice supply of DVDs. The apartment was wonderfully warm in the winter, and the view was great. We enjoyed our stay.
