~~ About the Apartment ~~

Up the elevator to the 14th floor, a few shorts steps, and walk in to your Seattle abode and relax. Everything you need is here to enjoy your stay in almost 1400 square feet. Of course, free wifi is included!

Living Room ~ The living room features two modern gray sofas and is tastefully decorated in modern shades of yellow and gray. The high ceilings make it feel even more spacious along with the huge windows letting in tons of light. You won't miss the tremendous city views from every part of the room. There is a 40 inch flat screen if you want to stay in for a night. Plenty of room for the 2 twin sized memory foam mattresses if you need extra sleeping space (no sleeper sofa).

Kitchen/Dining ~ Right off the living room is the kitchen and dining, giving it the great room feel. The remodeled kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs and features a breakfast bar with four stools. The clean white cabinets are set off by the gray quartz counter tops. The stainless appliances include a dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator and oven/stove. Between the kitchen and living area is the dining area for four, plus 4 stools at the breakfast bar, so 8 guests can eat at one time.

Balcony ~ The balcony is just off the living area, and overlooks (14 stories up) 1st Ave.. There are chairs and small tables out there for hanging out with family and friends. The city views are great and you are right in it! The Seattle Art Museum's iconic "Hammering Man" is right below you.

Primary Bedroom & Bath ~ The primary bedroom is large enough for a comfortable pillow-top king-sized bed, you will love the private bedroom. A dresser for all your things, not to mention closet space. Yellow and gray luxurious bedding only adds to the beautiful contemporary decor in this room. And don't forget the 32 inch flat screen TV. Past the closet, you'll find your private bath, complete with tub/shower and plenty of counter and cabinet space. It is also remodeled with gray quartz counter tops and includes towels, soaps, shampoo and a hairdryer.

Second Bedroom ~ Opposite side of the unit from the master bedroom is the 2nd bedroom featuring a queen bed, nightstands and a closet. Also another larger flat screen TV in this bedroom. The second full bath is just outside this bedroom as well.

Main Bathroom ~ Also spacious is the full bath with tub/shower, which is also remodeled with quartz counter tops. The yellow tones are carried throughout the apartment, including the lovely bathroom. Plush towels and even soaps and shampoo are supplied as well as a hair dryer.

Third "Bedroom" or den ~ Not a true bedroom with a door, but an additional sleeping space outside the 2nd bedroom and bathroom (across from kitchen - see floor plan photo). We have a day bed with trundle, so 2 twin mattresses with bedding. There is a privacy curtain as well.

Wonderful Location and Condo
The condo was great - clean and great location for us. We walked to baseball games (and took train home). We took train from airport to condo - very easy 2 blocks from Symphony Station (used to be University Station). couple blocks to Pike Place market. We loved our time there.

Beautiful rental
It was a wonderful stay, the place was very clean, check in was a touch confusing as the key cards weren't explained at the front desk and we needed a resident to explain how to use them. Parking garage was great, but a little bit of a maze. The apartment was spacious with nice views and furniture! Overall a wonderful place to stay

Well organized apartment in a great location
We enjoyed staying at this apartment while meeting up with my mother for a family weekend in Seattle. The building is in a great central location with convenient access to the water front, the museum, and the market and was just a few blocks away from the University Street station making for easy transportation to and from the airport. The bedrooms were both good sized and the kitchen had everything we needed.

Great apartment!
The apartment was exactly as described and a perfect fit for our girls weekend. Only a few blocks from pikes place market where we bought fresh flowers and snacks. You could see the ferries and water and downtown from the balcony. Debra was very responsive and helpful! Only one suggestion, this room desperately needs a new can opener! Thank you for a great stay!

Seattle saturation
This is an excellent location for a Seattle experience. 2 blocks from waterfront, 2 blocks from Pike Place market, 2 blocks from metro, 2 blocks from target. Location and ease of access to all major attractions couldn't really get any better. We rented a small car so even parking was convenient. Condo was spacious and in good condition. Everything is at your fingertips with this location. Access to interstate for day trips is also handy if you start your day early and beat traffic. Easy to recommend this property!

The location was perfect for our needs. The 2 bed, 2 bath, again perfect for our needs. The BEDS in the rooms, were AWEFUL !! I slept in the King bed one night, and one night only. Family members in the other bedroom didn't even sleep one night on their bed!! Thank heaven, that there was the extra daybed and newer comfy couches, or there wouldn't have been any needed sleep going on.

Enjoyable family trip
We enjoyed our stay. The apartment was clean and gave our family of four plenty of room to spread out. Much better for us than a cramped hotel room. The parking instructions were perfectly detailed that we were able to figure everything out in the garage. Unrelated to the apartment, but important for families- downtown Seattle seemed a lot more rough than my trip many years ago. I would avoid taking small children to the target on 3rd. There is a lot of crime there and even with security, there were people openly stealing and running out the door.

Great view and space for the family!
We loved this apartment and the view! The pool was easy to access and warm. We were thankful for the parking garage but found the instructions a bit confusing. There was lots of bedding, comfortable beds, a great kitchen and even some toys and books for the little one. Our family of five and grandma were all very comfortable. The bedrooms provided lots of privacy. The closets were spacious. The apartment was clean and comfortable! The dining room was a little tight, but we were able to cook and eat at least two meals a day there which saved us a small fortune while traveling. We also appreciated the ability to do laundry while staying there with 3 young kids. The proximity to Pike's market and the water front was priceless! Thank you for a lovely place to stay.

Good Location, Terrible Beds
We really appreciated the location and proximity to many of the attractions that Seattle has to offer. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. The check in process and parking is a little wonky as you have to make multiple stops to get checked in. That said, the fact that we couldn't get a good nights sleep really impacted the overall experience. Both beds were very uncomfortable. Not just firm but more like cheap RV mattresses. One could potentially get over that if they weren't woken up by the squeaky boards under the every time they turned over in it. We are not particularly large people either. I guess if sleep is important to you, I might pick another place.

Nice Location but cheap amenities
Checking in is a process since you have to check in, in one building to get keys, then go to the parking garage to park and then go to the unit. Parking on 1st Ave is difficult. Was instructed that detergent pods would be provided to wash clothes but couldn’t find any. When we called we were told we have to buy it ourselves. Back to the Target store for a 2nd time. For the amount of money, better shampoo and conditioner will be nice! The Suave products just don’t cut it. Location was good for what we had to do!! Thought I read about a hot tub but didn’t have one.

Great location the best central to everything!!!!! I would give it five stars but our only hiccups they need larger skillets maybe update there knifes. We ate out most meals. I like to cook but not on vacation but do like to make breakfast, Omletes fritatats, Pancakes, had to struggle. Have to get over myself...plus heat wave while were there, not there fault. Evenings were fine once we cooled it down with fans and we were never there during day. You could truly not have a better location.Pikes Market. Gum wall. Ferrry ride to Bainbridged bike around, Goofy Duck tour, Ferris Wheel, Mount Rainer only two hours away.... get up early. We did Orcas Island before a most see. Moran national park....Sea kayking.

Great location for downtown stay
Overall, great choice for stay downtown with easy access to SAM, Pikes Place and waterfront. Easy light rail trip from/to airport. Property Manager was very responsive. Only three call outs for others: 1) at the time of our stay only 1 elevator was operational due to remodel. A tenant was moving so the elevator was locked for their use for 2 hours with limited availability in that window. This caused 15 to 20 min wait times. 2) there are a lot of dogs at the complex and we were rarely in the elevator without one. We love dogs, but mentioning it for those who have allergies or are nervous around them. 3) read a previous comment about beds not being comfortable and found that my son in his 20s and I in my 50s both had trouble with sleeping on them. We are used to temperpedic firm mattresses so for us they were too soft. Comfort will be based on what you are used to.

Outstanding location!
Excellent place to stay if you want quiet in the heart of the city. There is lots to do within walking distance. which we wanted. We needed two bedrooms and two bathrooms and this apartment provided that, plus a lot of extras like spa and fitness center and pool and so on that we never used. Given all those amenities, the price is probably fair, though for our needs it was somewhat pricey. There is nothing special about the apartment itself, other than it is extremely quiet. The view would be better if the windows were bigger, the balcony is minimal, and the decor is strictly IKEA. We could never get the TV to operate properly and would have preferred a fireplace. From emails to check out to town car, the service provided was superb, though we found--upon leaving--a load of towels in the dryer, which meant we couldn't get a second load of towels or bedding into the washer as requested. Would I stay here again? Given the right circumstances, yes.
