"This place is very much walking distance like everyone says. If you're coming from Westlake Station I would recommend getting a ride as the walk there with luggage was more than we would have done had we known. There's a convenience store a short distance away, we walked to Pike Place Market (take Savor Seattle tour!!), walked to Starbucks Reserve/Serious Pie (coconut cream pie divine but about $12!) and walked to The Saint. That was a bit much not because of distance but killer hills!...
