Tri was a great host both before and during our stay, responding quickly to messages and providing useful advice on things to see, do, and eat. The apartment was every bit as nice as in the photos on airbnb and was bright, clean, and functional. The only surprise of the stay was a pleasant one: The neighborhood is on the one hand urban and relatively central, but on the other hand feels very safe and has plenty of green space (including at least one well-equipped playground) for letting a six year-old blow off steam.

This is the first place I'd try on a future trip to Seattle.
