We did have an overall nice time in Seattle. And Jessica's place has both pros and cons. For someone coming to attend an event at either of the stadiums, this place would be great.
PROS:
It does have some cool architecture, and a nice view.
The couch was (per my 15 year old) very comfortable for sleeping.
Location is great for the stadiums.
Jessica did respond pretty quickly to my questions.
CONS (that are fixable):
We had 5 people, which we made clear on the rental agreement. There were 5 towels total in the condo. There were no hand towels, no washcloths, no extras--just 5. It would have been nice to have at least 1 hand towel for each bathroom. And that includes the clean laundry that we took out of the dryer. There was a hamper of some other sheets and towels by the wash machine, but I have no idea if they were clean or dirty.
The one bathroom was not clean.
The pictures are somewhat deceiving. The kitchen photo was obviously taken with a wide angle or panoramic setting. And I tried to match up the bedroom pictures, but I am not sure if they are actually from the bedrooms in this unit.
The address on the listing is NOT the address of the unit. It was the address for key pick up. However, the key pick up location had changed. So I had 3 different addresses, one completely invalid, which was the one I had googled and mapquested, etc. Then the one where the key actually was, and the one that was the unit in which we were actually staying! The addresses were all very close, so it wasn't really a big deal, but did not get my stay off to a great start as it all seemed rather sketchy. When I asked Jessica about the different addresses, she did respond quickly, and offered me a free late check out, but that is really not useful when you need to catch a flight.
The key is in a lockbox on an empty office space. If you are checking in late at night, and have to stand there to get the lockbox open, it could be a bit unnerving.
CONS (that are not fixable):
Apparently, this building does not allow rentals. So we were asked to be somewhat discreet. That is hard to do when 5 people are checking in with luggage! This was supposedly on the rental agreement, so maybe I just didn't read closely enough.
Parking is an issue. This is true throughout all of Seattle, so not at all specific to this place. If you have an option to not bring a car, I strongly recommend it. And spot hero works ok, but there is no way to really know what you are getting when you reserve a spot.
All in all, this place would be perfect for a small group coming up for the weekend to just attend a function at the stadiums, to use uber from the airport and to get around. But for us, it just wasn't a great fit.
