If you want to experience downtown Seattle, this is the place that you want to stay! This location was truly centrally located. We came in for a quick 2-day trip and seen everything from the East Point Lighthouse, Pike Market, Snoqualmie Falls, Arboretum, and of course the Space Needle. Even with all of the sites that we were able to see we used less than half a tank of gas. Lyle is a great host, and I would stay here again when I visit Seattle.
