I stayed at this cottage for a couple nights by myself while I had some business in town, and my stay was pretty bad. My biggest issue was the smell - it reeked of cat pee. I have owned many animals throughout my life, enough to immediately recognize the smell. It was honestly overwhelming. The bedroom/living room area of the house is small and carpeted, so when I first opened the door the pee smell just hit me in the face, and the heaters made it so stuffy and suffocating. I immediately went to open the windows to air it out, and found none of the windows had screens.. except one, which wasn’t an actual installed screen panel, but a cut of screen fabric that was halfway attached with Velcro. I had to open up the place either way, the smell was so bad. That began the next issue - the spiders. I opened up three windows and the French doors, each time a giant spider fell down onto me. I am from the PNW, I know how it is and spiders don’t actually bother me that much. But after the 6th or 7th time one fell on me I was over it. The living area has stiff, uncomfortable wood futons, not the nice couches shown in the photos. Each night there was a neighbor yelling aggressively at someone.. being a younger woman on my own and hearing a nearby man yell angrily all night was unsettling, to say the least. There were cobwebs everywhere, crumbs on the carpet and surfaces, and overall the place did not feel clean. Plus the smell. I cannot recommend this place to anyone.

I travel for work and really like not having to stay in hotels! The Cottage was a perfect solution that I fell in love with after a coworker found it first. Quiet, clean, and tucked away in a lovely garden area. A neighborhood cat (Dinah) hung out in the back garden to bird watch, cuddle and nap too. Highly recommend!

I loved staying in this little house-behind-a-house. It had everything I needed, and then some. It's surrounded by greenery, with its own little garden outside a pair of French doors. It's a peaceful haven, and I felt very safe staying here on my own. I have back pain, so am fussy about beds and seating, but I was very comfortable here. The bed is just right, with a wonderful assortment of pillows: some feather, some synthetic and of varying firmness. The kitchen has two types of coffee makers, and even a coffee grinder and half & half.

We only had to stay for a night during for our trip. The cottage had everything you needed in the kitchen and it felt like home. The price wasn’t that much more than local hotels which is why we stayed there. Very close to food and the down town area. We only wished it had a small tv to occupy is for a few hours but honesty it wasn’t a big deal. You park on the street in front of the place but that didn’t matter to us either. We felt safe there.

This little gem is near the heart of the city but is so quiet and private it doesn’t feel like it at all. Convenient, clean and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen complete with good coffee and real half & half...I couldn’t have asked for anything more. This is definitely on my return list!

The feeling reminded me of a little beach cabin in Japan. There is a lovely, very thoughtfully created and peaceful view from every window. I stayed in the middle of COVID-19 so all the restaurants and stores were closed. But there is a high-end grocery store within walking distance, which was open. I would highly recommend this spot if you need to stay in town and want a bit of peace and tranquility.
