If you have a car then the location is ok. The neighborhood has lots of friendly people we met while walking (1/2 mile) to the light-rail station. If you are a light sleeper this is not the place for you because there is a lot of airplane noise; I live near an airport but must have a more insulated home because these jets were loud. The place was clean enough, carpet on stairs needed cleaning. Lots of towels available after we found them in a chest of drawers. Nice that there was shower gel, shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms. Great little coffee pastry place "Fresh Flour" I think is the name, very yummy. I wouldn't stay here again but only because I don't want to have to drive into downtown and bad weather makes the trip to the light-rail kind of a pain.
