 "Totally enjoyed our stay. This unit is so well equipped. When I returned from the nearby grocery - my first thought was, oh no I forgot coffee filters. Not to worry, as they were in the unit as was all the other basics. We visit our children in Seattle often and will definitely book this unit again." - Anonymous, 05/04/12( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"I had an excellent stay! No unpleasant surprises at all. Keyless locks (combination code), cable TV, small but fully equipped kitchen (minus food), and overall excellent facilities made for a very convenient and comfortable visit. I made good use of the area guidebooks and spent a lot of my time out on the town, knowing I had such an easy place to come back to. The air freshener scent was a little strong, but understandable; it aired out easily enough. Entire experience was hassle-free. Within a couple of blocks: Nabob is a great pub, Laredo's is a wonderful cantina, The Crow serves up nice dinners, and Panos Kleftikos is a charming Greek taverna. A QFC supermarket is walking distance, as is Seattle Center (Space Needle, cultural arts & entertainment). Buses to the rest of the city generally stop pretty close by - I recommend the OneBusAway app for the smartphone and Google Transit/Maps. Apartment complex is on a bit of a steep hill (~20degree incline), so be careful." - Tim, Washington, DC, 02/18/12( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"Great stay, loved the place. Check out the fabulous shopping, restaurants etc. just 8 blocks away in the area of Mercer and Queen Anne." - Anonymous, 10/11/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"This unit was perfect for our family of 4. While the pull-out couch could easily sleep 2, our kids (a teenager and a tween) didn't want to share, so the extremely helpful and gracious Debra arranged for a queen size air mattress to be waiting in the apartment for us when we arrived. With only a small modification to the living room (pushing the comfy leather chair next to the couch), it fit perfectly. We left in inflated the whole week and it didn't get in the way at all. My daughter thought it was even more comfortable than the pull-out bed. The location of the apartment can't be beat. Just a few blocks to the Seattle Center, with the Space Needle, Experience Music Project, Sci Fi Museum, Children's Museum, etc. You can also get the monorail there, to take you to Westlake Center where you can pick up the Light Rail to get to Pioneer Square or Chinatown all without the need for a car. We did rent a car since we were driving up the coast a bit, but we didn't need it much when we were just staying in town. If you do bring a car, you may want to consider paying for the garage for your stay. We only lucked out one time and were able to park in front of the building. It wasn't hard to find parking in the neighborhood, but can be a hassle if you have a lot to carry, etc. One thing to point out is that the apartment is on a very steep hill. This isn't unusual - most of Seattle is on one side or the other of a very steep hill - but it could have been really problematic for me if we didn't have our car. I have bad knees and after the second time climbing the hill after an outing, I was done. The rest of the trip, my husband dropped me and the kids at the door and went to find parking in the neighborhood. Overall, we give this apartment an excellent rating and would stay there again. We usually rent apartments when traveling rather than staying at hotels and we found this place to be a particularly nice one. It was well stocked with things many rentals don't provide - lot of extra towels, soap, a full spice rack in the kitchen, enough toilet paper and paper towels for the week, etc. The neighborhood felt very safe, the location was perfect and Debra was super hospitable and available to answer questions and provide anything we needed." - Patricia, Maryland, USA, 07/08/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"This was a wonderful place! We love walking and the hills are great! Kitchen was wonderful although we didn't use it much. Great sleeping and warm and dry,which is a feat in Seattle! Would reccommend to anyone with 2-4 guests!" - Sheryl, Ankeny, Iowa, 06/07/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
 "Debra rocks! This place is tastefully decorated, warm and comfy. It feels like you're home, everything you need is there. We had a really great time and we were very much pleased with the apartment. Great view from living room. Location is also great and the neighborhood is very quite. I will definitely stay again and will recommend it to my friends." - Carlos & Jenny, Barcelona, Spain, 04/26/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
"The Terrace Vista apartment was very comfortable for a week's holiday. Debra was friendly and professional, which made the renting process go smoothly. The lovely Queen Anne location meant that we could look down the hill at the city without actually having to be downtown. The quiet neighborhood was within easy walking distance of great shops -- like Teacup and Queen Anne Books -- and restaurants. We recommend Via Tribunali, Betty, 5 Spot, and Top Pot." - Emily & Kevin, Virgini, 01/07/11( HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)
