This place is modest on the outside but modern, quiet, clean, and comfortable - just like the pictures. Very convenient for the university district. I felt safe all the time, and in the nearby streets are many great places to eat, including Seattle's best breakfast one block away (Portage Bay Cafe). The neighbours were friendly, one young guy carried my bag up the stairs for me. Also, the heating system works well. Melissa was very accommodating of me arriving early and leaving late, and prompt on most emails. I would recommend this place for sure.
