In a modern, full service hi-rise at 2nd and Lenora, Megan’s compact studio on the 11th floor is perfectly located for exploring Seattle. The quiet apartment faces NE, with a pleasant view of the skyline. The building has excellent security, including a 24-hour concierge. The shops and restaurants of Belltown are just outside the door, with lively Pike Place just a few minutes’ walk. Seattle visitors seeking a central location and to live among the locals will find Megan’s apartment an excellent value compared to a hotel. I stayed for a month and enjoyed it thoroughly.

I did not meet Megan in person, but she responded promptly to my emails and checked in with me several times during my stay to offer assistance if needed. Check-in and check-out were hassle free. I found the listing information and photos to be accurate.

The TV offers a basic cable lineup but no premium channels or HD. Wi-Fi is fast, reliable and password secured. There is a work area, though the office chair is a bit too low for the high desktop.

With the many restaurants around, guests likely will be eating out frequently, but the high-end kitchen is reasonably well-supplied for self-catering if desired. There is a small dining table with two stools. The queen mattress is comfortable, supplied with quality linens.
