The location was great. The building was safe and secure. Having an indoor parking spot was a bonus. The room was as described. There were portable air conditioning units rather than central air. The first night was hot. I would make sure the air is working if I was staying during the summer months.

The Host seemed to do her job other than I explained to her and sent her pictures how dirty the place was and she just did not care.The location is great close to everything.Just really had a hard time getting over how dirty it was inside the unit.

Perfect location for accessing the waterfront, pikes market, and other attractions. The overall property is top notch and the views from the apartment are great.
What a great location! Had a short stay here in August. We went to Pike Place and The Aquarium. Also had a wonderful dinner at Elliotts. Everything was so close and the view from the balcony was fantastic!
This was a perfect location for what my adult son and I wanted to see and do. Gorgeous stove! Loved the in unit washer / dryer for convenience as well.
This spot was fantastic! Great distance from a lot of attractions and very quiet building. Host was very responsive and walked us through the whole process! Would 100% stay here again and would recommend to anyone!
Ideal location, walk to Aquarium, Pikes Place Market and all of the waterfront attractions.The condo was clean, comfortable and perfectly equipped. The balcony was the icing on the cake.We would love to come back to this sweet place!
We loved just about everything about this place. The location is amazing. The view of the wheel at night is truly remarkable. Fireplace wasn't working and I was told it's been turned off for safety. One of the windows wouldn't close properly, but it wasn't too much of an issue. And the main TV had a missing remote control which make it impossible to control volume, so we didn't use it. The bathroom, kitchen, space, and location were all great. We didn't use the laundry or the hot tub/communal areas. We would stay again for sure.
This property was the cleanest place I have stayed at. Location is central to all major sites around the city. Would highly recommend staying here and will be booking again!
This is a great place for two or three people. It is centrally located, a stairway (or elevator) to Pike Place Market, a step out the front door to the waterfront. It's an easy one-mile walk to the ballpark or to Pioneer Square. And somehow it is quiet!
Location is everything!! We loved our stay, just steps from the waterfront and the new access to the market. We will be back! The carpet could use a cleaning, but that is overlooked given the location and the view. Excellent communication with the host.
The property is in a great location and was easy to find. It was clean, neat, and very comfortable!
