The Backyard Cottage was a perfect base for our 5 days in Seattle. We are a couple with 2 children, ages 12 & 9 . Our 9 year old LOVED the loft. (FYI - the loft IS quite high, so you might think twice before putting any little ones up there.) The parking was easy & location fantastic. C&P coffee, just 2 blocks away, was or go-to for morning coffee. The cottage was clean and fully equipped. We enjoyed the extra bubble bath that our hosts had available for us. Overall, we would go back and stay again. This space is simple, but clean, cute, affordable, and close to all things West Seattle.
