We stayed at the apartment for just over a month and found it to be a perfect fit for our needs. While the kitchen/dining area were lacking in natural light, both bedrooms were delightfully light and decorated simply, with a pleasing color scheme. The larger bedroom is set up with a mini living room with a futon and a large screen tv (Roku). The kitchen has the basics and then some, including a full size stove top/oven, refrigerator, d/w, microwave, and a nice table for four. The w/d worked great and were set up in its own little back room.
In response to some complaints others had...while occasionally the response times were a bit delayed (I think they manage multiple properties and are busy), Dorothy was very good to deal with and she was quick to offer solutions to any needs expressed (going above average even). The sugar ants referenced by some were seen in the bathroom on one occasion early on, but just after some sugar scrub was used. Once that was thoroughly washed down the drain, and sprayed with a homemade solution of water, dishsoap and vinegar, it killed them and they never came back.
The neighbors are close by, but on one side you're separated by a high fence, and on the other side they keep their shades down perpetually, so it feels reasonably private. I only ever saw neighbors from across the street and they were polite and kept to themselves. Those neighbors have a beautiful garden which I enjoyed viewing when soaking up the sun in a side yard.
The apartment is easy to find, conveniently located about two blocks from the light rail Ranier Beach station. The address provided takes you to the entrance on the back side of the building, so take a right on 42nd instead (bldg sits in middle of 41st and 42nd). The confirmation email provided a different address, but ignore that (Air BnB glitch?).
All in all, it was a good stay and I would recommend it to anyone that needs a home away from home with standard amenities, ease of access and entry (pin code entry), within reasonable driving distance of downtown (12 min?) and all at a reasonable price.
