A friend of mine and I met in Seattle for a visit, after years of not seeing each other. Liz's place was perfect for us: Two bedrooms, kitchen, living room (TV with movie access), easy bus access (1.5 blocks) and actually relatively short (15-25 minute) rides depending where we went since we did not rent a car, to all areas in Seattle that we explored in different directions: Seattle Center (Chihuly, Space Needle, Museum of Pop), Downtown: Aquarium, restaurants, Starbucks Roastery, Zoo, Theo Chocolate Tour, Molly Moon ice cream.
Liz and Ryan were most helpful and timely in responding when we had questions. Their place is located in Magnolia, up from the Cruise Terminal. I was concerned about being able to get around using the bus. It was not an issue at all. And the area is beautiful, the neighborhood gorgeous.
The rental is a remodeled basement that is spacious, clean, comfortable, quiet, and more. We would stay there again away from the hustle and bustle that we had originally considered.
