The flat itself was terrific. Spacious enough easily for three people. Would probably fit four comfortably. Everything was clean, including bathroom. Fridge and freezer are on the small side, but if you're on vacation, you should be enjoying the delicious local food anyway! Stairs getting up from the sidewalk and deck stairs up to the flat are narrow and pretty steep. I consider myself athletic and even I had to take it slow going down. The flat is located approximately 2.5 miles from the water's (Elliott Bay) edge near downtown Seattle. It is walkable, but quite hilly in sections, so either take your time, or start training now!
Ron was a terrific host. From immediate contact upon booking the flat six months in advance, to the week before our trip, he stayed connected to us. He was also there to show us around the flat (and help with our bags up the stairs) when we arrived, as well as another check-in during the week before we left. Ron's hospitality went beyond our wildest expectations for an AirBNB host (perhaps that's the fault of our New Jersey edginess). My only complaint: the visit was too short!!
