Loved Marcus' place. This was our first time to Seattle as our starting point for our PNW road trip and we were in the perfect location. This contemporary tiny-house set the perfect vibe. It was comfortable and had all the amenities that you'd expect from a hotel! Wasn't sure what to expect out of Columbia City, but it couldn't have been any better. It was an easy walk to multiple restaurants and a great coffee shop (Empire Espresso) and a short walk to the light rail station to take you into town. Forget an Uber or rental car, the light rail is super cheap and will take you close enough to where you want to go. In one day we were able to visit Pike Market, the Great Wheel, go to the top, of the Space Needle, visit Kerry Park and eat at many delicious restaurants along the way. Our only regret was not spending more time in Columbia City. Marcus was also super helpful with recommendations. Don't pass this spot up.
