Property is in an excellent location. Literally walking steps to the boardwark! The listing did indicate that there was no AC - we were prepared for that. However the property faces west so the late afternoon evening sun really did heat up the property. The living room was missing a few blinds so we were unable to fully block out the sun. The property did come with multiple fans which we did appreciate.

A fabulous hideaway in the center of everything

This was my second stay at Harbor Steps with Picture Properties, and it did not disappoint. The location is unbeatable- just a couple minutes on foot to Pike’s Place Market. Views of Puget Sound from the property are incredible. Units are clean and checking in/out is easy.

Seattle getaway with a View

An excellent location right downtown. Apartment is in an older property, but the view is incomparable. Buildings have a 24-hour door person at the main entrance and provide a secure, comfortable location. Being able to shop at Pike's for the catch of the day and cook it up in a well-appointed kitchen was just what we wanted. We feasted at the dining table in front of a view of Elliott Bay. The sheltered balcony was a cozy place to enjoy the fresh air! We'll visit again!

Tremendous view in a perfect location

We loved our stay in this apartment. Communication with Debra was excellent, the apartment was very comfortable, and the location is perfect. We never got tired of the view and that really is the reason to book this apartment. We could hear the elevator from the bedroom, which was annoying, but that shouldn’t keep you from booking here. You won’t find a better place.

Nice view and central location close to waterfront pier.

The location is great for an AMAZING view and walking to waterfront and market, but it is noisy. The condo was nice, but no air conditioning, so we had to leave windows open, fans running, and the HVAC unit across the street and street noise was so noisy. The check-in and parking was a bit confusing, but once done, it will be easy to do again. Looking forward to coming back during rainy season and when pool is available!

Easy to walk everywhere!

The condo was centrally located to all the fun downtown activities and locations. We enjoyed eating breakfast at Fonte's, and dinner at Von's, both are right next door. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The shower head is very short so if you are 6 foot tall or more, you have to run around and duck to get wet- that is my only negative comment.

Smelly linens and great view

Finding the right spot in the endless underground garage and then taking two different elevators and walking down long winding hallways to get to the room (whose lock was a killer to open) wasn't a great introduction to this small apartment but the spectacular view helped mitigate this. However, all the bed linens including (particularly) the duvet cover and pillows smelled like dirty laundry or stinky dog and should all be replaced or at least deodorized.

Just OK...

Good location in downtown with great views of the harbor and close to good food and many Seattle attractions. Despite these strong attributes the unit is dated and in need of renovation. The water in the pool is cold. (When we asked one of the residents if that was normal she indicated that it's been that way for quite a while.) As a result we spent most of our time walking about the city which we greatly enjoyed. Lastly, this unit is located close to the external elevator which is noisy. Overall, we rated the unit as OK but will probably look elsewhere when we return.

Great location with one small drawback!

Let me start by saying that we would definitely stay at this property again. Super convenient, close to the rail (light rail from airport takes you within 2 blocks of property for $3) and waterfront. Walking distance to Pioneer Square (Underground tour a must) and Pikes Market (Savor Seattle tour highlight of our trip). The property itself is clean, spacious and with a great view of the harbor. We didn’t use the kitchen but seems great if you are likely to use it. Washer and dryer on site an added bonus. Property owner very responsive and helpful. The only draw back was the freeway noise. Even though the property was on the 16th floor, the Viaduct is close with 3 stories of traffic. It was a bit off putting the first day and sitting out on the balcony was far from a relaxing experience. But we found that we adjusted to the noise by the 2nd-3rd day. Definitely consider this property if staying in downtown Seattle.

Phenomenal location!! You weren’t kidding when you said your place was just steps from everything. We walked to every destination…football game, baseball game, opening of the water front celebration, Pike Place Market, whale watching tour, and excellent restaurants. The room was perfect for our visit, with all the amenities needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.
