Clean and quiet. Just a couple of suggestions...would be better to have more space for toiletries. Parking can be full on the streets sometimes. My wife and I decided to walk for dinner, just in case to not lose our spot. We would stay there again.

Our trip to Seattle was for my nieces photo shoot in the city and for a Candlelight Concert! It was three of us staying at this adorable and quant, clean and accommodating place. Although, for 3 ladies getting ready for our event, we needed another bathroom. The area and parking was nice. Plenty of restaurauntes and coffee shops close by. We really enjoyed our stay.Suggestions: We had issues with finding the right location, GPS took us to another area. Also, possibly needing to be updated are the towels.

Little Seattle Haven

I was in town for a 3 day conference and Michael's place was a short bus ride away from the university. The 2 story apartment is well equipped and, spacious. It's on a quiet street and tucked back behind the main house so it's beautifully quiet.The kitchen has everything you need - wish I'd been able to use it! The bed is extremely comfortable land the bathroom is well organized with shampoo and conditioner in the shower, and soap and handcream above the sink. There's also a hairdryer and an iron.The bus I used each day was a short walk away (down a typical Seattle steep hill!).Michael was very responsive and helpful, and made me feel welcome.I highly recommend Michael's place!
