If you are coming for a vacation in Seattle, stay at Saint John's Apartments! Our #309 is perfect for vacation or business travelers. It has two bedrooms, two baths, a nice living room and a fully functional kitchen.
St John’s was built in 1910. We find that people who love old houses really admire this place. It is a charming old building with hardwood floors and fancy period woodwork. There are twenty five apartments in the building on two floors, above retail businesses along Pike Street. #309 is on the top floor and has a great view down onto the street from both the living room and the master bedroom.
We've made it feel like home. The living room has a seven foot super comfortable couch, two stuffed chairs and a 37-inch LCD TV with DVD player and a small collection of movies. (And Blockbuster is a block away.) The apartment also has wireless high speed internet. It's a great place to visit and relax, or to get work done if you're here on business.
The kitchen works, but it is small. There is a table seating two, a full-size fridge, microwave and gas stove, plus of course small appliances, dishes and all the essentials.
The Master Bedroom has a king size bed, TV, writing desk, and a private bath with shower and toilet. The sink in a seperate nook area.
The second bedroom is in the middle of the unit. Its window looks into a light well, giving natural light but no view to the street below. This keeps it very quiet and it's is a great place to sleep. The bed is queen size, with a firm mattress, new in October '06.
We are in a great location. We are in what is know as the "Pike-Pine Corridor", which denotes the two main streets that run from Seattle’s Pike Place Market through the downtown shopping area and then up to the residential neighborhoods on Capitol Hill. The distance from St. John’s down to the center of Seattle's shopping district is ten blocks, the Pike Street Market is just five more. There are interesting stores, restaurants and businesses all along the way and it’s an easy walk.
Directly across the street from us is a large supermarket, open 24 hours, and the convenience of this should not be underestimated.
We love this apartment, and we hope you will too. Make it "your place" when you come to Seattle! |
