Posh Lakeside Suite: 1-Bedroom – Steps to the Beach, Dining Options & grocery.

With a last-minute change to our itinerary, this apartment was a blessing. Marc greeted us and provided some excellent travel advise for our stay and gave us a tour of the place. Extremely clean and comfortable, enjoyed eating at the kitchen counter and checking out the plants next door. Easy walk to restaurants and grocery store, public transportation available, nice view of the lake from a small park area a few doors down. Very quiet area/apartment in a really nice neighborhood. Hope we can come back again for a longer stay -- Thanks Marc!!!

We booked Marc's property because it was near the UW Medical Center where our daughter was scheduled to donate a kidney. The stay was listed at a reasonable price for the five nights but by the time we'd paid extra fees, cleaning deposit, damage insurance, a large damage deposit, and taxes, we had paid nearly three times the advertised rate for five nights. When the kidney recipient developed an infection and the surgery had to be postponed, Marc was completely unsympathetic and refused to work with us in any way. He would not refund any days, nor would he allow us to reschedule for October (even though the dates were open). Had we booked a hotel, we would have had no problem canceling or rescheduling our stay. Nor have we received our expensive damage deposit, though he has known for two weeks that we would not be coming. Note that Marc insists on a minimum 60 day cancellation. If you can be 100% certain nothing will happen to interrupt your plans, go ahead. We are out more than we can afford for nothing. I can say that I am extremely proud of my daughter who has worked in the world's most poverty-stricken places, serving those who need her most. She is prepared to donate a kidney to a needing colleague. These actions define who she is. I am so glad I am not Marc's mother. I would be ashamed. This is not the first time we had to tweak a schedule when renting a private apartment or home. It is however the last time I will use this service. I am back to the hotel business where business practices consider not just the owners, but the customers as well.

Property is spotless and comfortable. Located in a wonderful neighborhood with everything you need within walking distance

This Posh Lakeside Suite is indeed everything we hoped for and more. Madison Park is a gorgeous setting, the condo is beautifully appointed, has all one would wish for in every room, a perfect parking spot and so easy to walk to all everything you could wish for in Madison Park. Plus, Marc and John are wonderful! We wish we could have stayed for a month. We felt so welcomed and comfortable and hope we can stay again very very soon! Thanks so very much Marc and John

Great apartment. Wonderful spot in Seattle Marc extremely helpful and right there if needed. Hope to stay here again

The Madison Park neighborhood in Seattle was new to us and a delight to explore. The apartment is right across from Lake Washington, and it is a great place to walk. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Another plus - convenient grocery and restaurants just a few blocks away.

We were BLESSED to find this beautiful lakeside suite! It was perfect for us on our first journey to Seattle! This outstanding property was very clean, quiet, spacious, and had a great kitchen. Yes, all this, and more, with a fantastic location! Everything was in perfect working order, from kitchen to bathroom to keypad-equipped front door. The off-street parking was perfect for us. Marc was extremely helpful & responsive, from our first contact to the day of our departure! The neighborhood, with superb restaurants, as well as a nearby park, add to the beauty of staying in this rental. We know with Marc, and this property, this would be perfect for our second trip to Seattle!

We were lucky to find this unit for our first trip to the Seattle area. We wanted a place that was clean, quiet, more spacious than a hotel, with a usable kitchen, & conveniently located. The unit met all these criteria. Like people on dating sites, not all vacation rentals live up to their photos, but this one did. Everything was in perfect working order, from kitchen to bathroom to keypad-equipped front door. The off-street parking was a plus for us, as was the on-site laundry facility. The bed & couch were both comfortable, & we did not have that icky feeling of sleeping in a stranger's room. Since we were in town for a week, it was handy to have 2 separate closets in the bedroom. Marc was extremely helpful & responsive, from our first contact to the day of our departure. Added bonuses: the gardens outside were lovely (many plants in bloom & all well-tended); the neighborhood & nearby park make for good strolling; & the lake across the street adds tranquility.

Very nice apartment - clean, quiet, tasteful, and comfortable. Owner friendly and accommodating. Nice short walk to the Lake Washington park/beach, and restaurants and shops. Also really handy to have off-street parking available. Would recommend to others.

Close to Lake Washington, this compact apartment is away from Seattle traffic and noise but 2 blocks from a charming neighborhood center, Madison Park. It was clean and tidy with a well-stocked kitchen - sharp knives, unlike many places. Cute pocket patio in front is pleasant for morning coffee. Nice to have actual king size bed and there are two closets. Friendly owner lives in this two-story building and was available to answer our questions. Note: the #11 bus goes directly into heart of downtown, runs every 15 min., takes about 25 min. Avoids traffic and $$ parking. We plan to return for another get-away stay.
