Highly recommend staying in Alki Beach - such an interesting vantage point looking across the bay at all of Seattle day or night, and getting to see the industrial ship yard on the way by ferry or car. A nice laid back community - made it feel like vacation while taking advantage of a major metro area.
And the place - efficient, secure, clean & comfortable with nice add ons of snacks, bathroom needs, etc. We were gone too much of the day to take advantage of the patio, but it would be nice to sit out for dinner. And very easy to find location without having to look up on a map more than once.
Only slight issue we had was hearing some foot steps upstairs. But there was a noise machine to help blot out sound in the morning.
