Great stay
Friendly staff, clean room & comfy beds. With nice shower and hot water with good pressure. Great view from our balcony. Enjoyed the big bottle of free water and use of the barrowed umbrella located in our room. Safe & walkable location with fun bars & restaurants and farmers market on Sunday. When in Seattle we will stay there next time.
