At the risk of letting the cat out of the bag, this place is an absolute oasis. I lived in Seattle for 16 years, and haven't been back for awhile. My family and I (husband and 7 yo daughter) stayed here for a week and it was bliss. A perfect place to land and relax in beauty and peace after rediscovering lovely Seattle. It is so close to several neighborhoods--Ballard, Fremont, Queen Anne, and a short trip to downtown and waterfront, not to mention one of my favorites, Discovery Park. We operate well in close quarters and interesting spaces, and this fit the bill perfectly. Can't recommend it highly enough.
