This was our second time staying at Marcus' place in Columbia City. We were in town to check out a ballgame on Seattle and it's super convenient to leave the car (free parking) and hop the nearby Link train into downtown. It's only about a 5-minute walk to the station and a 15-min ride. Saves you having to deal with downtown traffic and parking. The suite itself is very clean with a hotel-room-like feel. Self check-in was easy with the keypad and Marcus is quick to respond to messages.
