Sarah and Ron were great hosts and the apartment location is great for sightseeing (10 min walk to either Pike's or the Space Needle in opposite directions.) The neighborhood is a lot of fun and we were given really good suggestions for places to go. We had a big group (6 cousins,) so it was a little tight, but we made it work (i.e. if you have a big group, make sure you get along well!) The apartment has a great view of both downtown and the water.
Would recommend this place for anyone looking for a central spot downtown!
