~~ 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.

Great apartment and location

This apartment worked great for our group of 5 adults. Close enough to attractions and transit that we only used rideshare a couple of times. Highly recommend and loved that we had room to spread out. Also enjoyed the workout room a couple of times which was a bonus.

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!

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.

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.
