Lara's Nest is a gem. It is exactly as pictured: roomy, uncluttered, and bright, which we appreciated during Seattle's rain.
For long-term renters, the storage is its best feature. The dresser drawers held all of our clothing, and the two closets on either side held all the clothing we need for a 6-month stay--with room to spare. Then there are the two shelves in the large 8' x 8' bathroom. Finally, the small door near the tv leads to a 3' x 8' storage cubby for suitcases or bulk supplies like Costco paper towels and tp.
Fremont is an interesting part of town. We like its quirkiness. And we loved the nearby Starbucks and the gourmet PCC market, which we used for dinners/deserts 2-3 times a week. Spendy but worth it.
The drive into downtown Seattle or the Hutch medical complex took only 10-12 minutes
All in all, the Nest makes for a great home base
