Having planned my trip fairly last minute, I was grateful that I chose this place that was so central. I made the most of my short few days by checking out several different neighorhoods/ sites in Seattle and it was very easy, including a 30 min car ride to Alki beach, 30 min walk to Pike Place Market, and easy subway across the street to UW campus and the airport. Just a note that the unit is not the entire house, which I wasn't sure about from the title/ description, but it was quiet and the unit felt very private and plenty spacious.
