This place is as described—simple, solid, a great location, but extremely bare minimum. The kitchen is hard to cook in and missing a lot of the basics. For example I bought a can opener because there wasn't one. All of the utensils are very cheap and plastic with dull knives and unusable cutting board. And, while I didn't see cockroaches I felt their presence. There were traps everywhere and cockroach spray prominently displayed in the kitchen.
That being said, it's a great little spot and the LOCATION is ideal. I was alone and didn't need more than was there. It's perfect to walk many places and close to the transit from the airport. It's in a secure building on a quiet street. It's a great distance between Pike Place, ferries, museums, bars, and more.
