Northwest Cottage is the perfect for a long term stay! I needed a spot for about two months after our home sold and before I moved away from the Seattle area. The Cottage is just as pictured in the photos - it was comfortable, quiet, and I felt very safe in the neighborhood. Alisha really has thought of everything - the kitchen, laundry, and bathroom are all well stocked. Both she and her husband were friendly, helpful, and very responsive to questions. The location is not far from I-5 and my commute to downtown Seattle was less than 15 minutes. I would definitely recommend this spot for a long term stay in the Seattle area!
