We had a great time at the place. It is a basement apartment, but it is well lit inside and nicely decorated. At night, you may want to remember to turn on the heaters, even in the summer, as it can be quite chilly in the morning when you get up. If taking public transit, the access is great (invest in an Orca card, definitely worth it), and allocate about 40 minutes to get from out of the apartment to downtown Seattle. Don't expect to rely on the Wifi too much, as the signal strength is relatively weak and may disconnect you from time to time. A great spot to be in the suburbs of Seattle while still being close enough to enjoy all of the city at a reasonable price!
