“Ginger is a comfortably large 55' space with all you will need - no amenity lost.

Full kitchen, living space with sofa and table, bathroom with hot shower and functioning toilet, 3 wall heaters for cozy nights, 1 full bedroom with queen bed and closet, 1 lofted bedroom with a queen bed, a full size sleeper sofa in the living room, and very large rooftop deck boasting enviable views of downtown Seattle and Lake Union.

As for living on a boat, there is little like it, and I suggest you try it out.

You might be looking at some swanky pad as well, and that would be great, but this is a cool experience, a piece of Seattle history you should wear for a few days when you can.

It's an opportunity to be around the mayhem that is water life during the day, and the peace and tranquility that floating can be at night.”
