We stayed at Deborah's place for four nights in October and really enjoyed it. The area is nice and quiet and there is a streetcar nearby that goes to Capitol Hill and Pioneer Square. As advertised, there is quite a lot of noise from the floor above. The noise isn't bad at night so didn't interrupt our sleep but earplugs (which were provided) are probably necessary if you want to sleep in in the morning. We quite enjoyed the locally roasted ground coffee that was left out for us too!
