This cottage was really perfect for our two-month stay in Seattle. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped and big enough to cook in. The area is quiet, yet very close to many restaurants and markets (especially Asian ones). The library is filled with a rich assortment of books we wanted to stay forever and read. We were here in Nov. and Dec., but it's obvious that in the other seasons the back yard gardens and patio are very special.
