Waterfront Balcony Retreat -Steps to Pike Place & Aquarium

Located in the center of pedestrian mall along the waterfront, my place can take you to the major famous attractions in Seattle within walking distance!
Drink a cup of famous local coffee while admiring the seaside view from a picture window. Stroll to the Pike Market from the sky bridge just down the building. The Seattle Aquarium is on the corner across the street. Take an adventure to the Great Wheel while enjoy the seafood restaurants along the waterfront. Walk about 5 minutes you can arrive Pier 66 and take a cruise to Alaska!

Location is everything!! We loved our stay, just steps from the waterfront and the new access to the market. We will be back! The carpet could use a cleaning, but that is overlooked given the location and the view. Excellent communication with the host.

This is a great place for two or three people. It is centrally located, a stairway (or elevator) to Pike Place Market, a step out the front door to the waterfront. It's an easy one-mile walk to the ballpark or to Pioneer Square. And somehow it is quiet!

The location on the waterfront was great. It had easy access to everything we wanted to do. The onsite parking was a welcome addition.Unfortunately, the unit has no central air conditional which was made up for by loud portable units installed in the bedroom and living room.

Very convenient location and the check in process was super easy. Comfortably slept 3 people. Only issues were the A/C unit in the living room was not vented and the apartment was very warm when we arrived, 78 degrees. The Carpet could use a deep cleaning. Owner/manager was very communicative through the entire process.

Fun in Seattle!

We loved the location and the view (Our GPS steared us incorrectly. You want to go on Alaskan Way. Some construction in the area.)We loved having the space of a condo.) The Kitchen is beautiful. The bed comfortable. We would definitely return.

Terrific location! Parked the car on arrival and and didn’t use it after that. Carpets are badly stained, rippling up, and need replacing.Weather was quite warm, and the only air conditioner was in the bedroom and could barely keep it cool enough for sleeping. Another air conditioner in the living room would be a great improvement.

Location is great. Having parking is also a big plus but construction outside impeded the view & made getting in and out of the building challenging.
