We may well have been the very first guests at the previously un-reviewed condo. Everything seemed brand new, including the faint smell of a recent repainting. The location is great for the convention center and a short (less than 1/2 mile) walk to the train to the airport. Communication with Valta (the rental agency) was prompt and excellent. So why only 4 stars? There were some startup issues for this property. The built-in microwave was inoperative and some of the lights would flicker on and off, hinting at some electrical gremlins. The was a severe lack of electrical outlets for charging phones and devices that could easily be remedied by providing more power strips. The pillows in the larger bedroom were huge and hard and could have doubled as construction bricks - fortunately we found two softer ones in the smaller bedroom that was not used during this visit.If we have need to stay in this part of Seattle again, we won't hesitate to return to this property. Hopefully by then these other matters will have been addressed by the property owner.
