If you like having a very quiet place to stay and a well located base from which to explore Seattle, this is it. It is right next to the Japanese Gardens, the Arboretum, and close to restaurants, coffee shops, and grocers. The kitchenette provides a toaster oven, decent-sized fridge, microwave, and dishes, etc. There is no stove or hot plate, but we did not find that a problem. Carmen respected our privacy; we actually only saw her once when we arrived. She and her son live upstairs to the unit, but we only barely and once or twice heard them. Her communication was clear and only what was needed. There is a bedroom, bathroom, and the Kitchenette/living room with a smallish TV with loads of viewing options and music. Overall the unit may not be as luxuriously appointed as other rentals, but for the price and location it is great. Very clean. Recommend.
