My friend, dog and I had the pleasure of staying at Karra's place. The location was right next to the light-rail, though to save a little time we usually took Lyft to get to downtown/Pike Market in about 15 min. My dog loved the walk along Lake Washington, and the neighborhood is really nice. If you have a pup with you I also recommend Compadre Coffee, a short walk down by the light rail station. The accommodations were a great size, like having a massive apartment, and I loved the large kitchen and bathroom areas.
