This property has an excellent location to Pike’s market, the pier, and all that area has to offer. For our trip, this was what was most important. The apartment was clean. Safe and secure. There is no AC in this unit (NE1415). We slept with the windows open and had every fan going constantly. For mid-westerns this was something for us to adjust to, and it did feel a little stuffy at times. The bed situation worked perfectly for our group. Four adults and four kids. The beds weren’t overly comfortable. I would say standard for every other VBRO I have ever stayed in, making three nights just the right amount of time before backs start to protest the support level. The communication between the rental property manager and us was excellent.

Right where we wanted to be!
We purchased the parking available through the property, parked our vehicle and didn’t get it out until we left! It was an easy walk to Pike Place Market, the Great Wheel, the Seattle Art Museum, and to many, many restaurants and shops. Public transport made getting to the sculpture garden easy. The apartment was clean and well equipped. Though not air conditioned, we were comfortable with the windows open. The shared lounge on the 25th floor was a bonus offering fantastic views! Definitely recommend if you want to be right in the thick of things!

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.

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.
