I would like to say first, that this is a great location and the building staff is wonderful. They have no connection with Stay Alfred, they went out of their way to help us resolve some of the problems we encountered.
Stay Alfred mixed up the keys to at least three apartments. We arrived, and were given our packet, only to find that we had received another guest's keys. We went back to the concierge, to find another Stay Alfred guest waiting, also with the wrong keys. Ours happened to be hers but hers weren't ours, if that makes any sense. The concierge did some searching and found the keys for our apartment.
The first reaction to the apartment was that the carpet was filthy. It was a light colored carpet with several large dark stains in the entry and dining area. There was only one bar of soap for two bathrooms. This was all slightly annoying but not really an issue until we found that the master bedroom blinds wouldn't close! At night, with buildings close by and a clear view of our neighbors, we were really uncomfortable about that. We called Stay Alfred and they promised that someone would come repair the blinds but no one ever did during our two night three day stay. My husband found a chair and a knife and was able to close the blinds without any damage to the blind but not before he cut himself in the process.
Considering the prime location of this property, one would think that it would benefit Stay Alfred to take a little better care of it.

The location was so great, we were able to walk to so many places. The light rail from the airport took us within two blocks. The sundeck has a great view of the Ferris Wheel, which is beautiful at night. There is a nice market/deli there and close by restaurants, happy hours and shops. The fitness room was nice too. However, the mattress in the guest bedroom is saggy and more for one person than two unless you like to be close. Our main complaint was the cleanliness. The dishes were dirty, the carpet was dirty and we used one of the rollaway beds but had to put both rollaway mattresses on one bed as they were very worn/torn. The blanket we pulled out for the rollaway was dirty as well. I would recommend it assuming the cleaning crew does a better job.

We were so satisfied with our accommodation in Seattle here, 3 blocks from Target, 2 from the four seasons and 2 from Pike place market! Tje apartment is great for any family traveling with kids. Carpets needed some TLC but overall the apartment was clean and the starter kit was more than adequate with any additional requirements available from the city Target just 3 blocks away. Definitely would recommend this property and the staff from Stay Alfred.
Everyone at Stay Alfred was great to work with. We had an issue with internet when we got there and got it resolved immediately. Location wise, this place was great we could walk everywhere. The waterfront is a hot mess right now with the big dig, so that was disappointing, but it was nice to be 5 minutes from Pike Place. The apartment furnishings were worn, the beds were awful, and the it just wasn't clean. It looked like someone had come in and done a 1/2 hour clean on the place in between us and the last guests. Stray hairs in bedding and some unidentified stuff on the floor in the bathroom and the wall. We never cooked or ate there as a result.
