The Seattle Cottage was super clean and very convenient located to my brothers home in Maple Leaf (about 2 blocks away). Maple Leaf is a very lovely residential area and a quick bus ride or Lyft ride to downtown Seattle. I loved that the lights hanging in the back of the cottage were motion sensitive and would turn on when we got home at night time. The lights were not super bright so that was nice as I didn't want to wake our hosts. Cheryl was super responsive and she was able to answer my call right away when I had a question about the stove. Loved that Cheryl and Steve had a book on the building progress of the Seattle Cottage and that Steve was able to spend quality time building the cottage with his sons.
