Places to stay near Woodland Park Zoo

Tranquil Secluded Studio Steps from Woodland Park

This very unique space is quiet, private and tucked away off the backyard, beneath the branches of a lilac tree. We are located at the nexus of four of the north end's most amenity-rich neighborhoods, Wallingford, Fremont, Phinney Ridge, and Green Lake. Off-street parking is not available, but street parking is free and unregulated. During the day, spots are generally plentiful. It gets a little tight at night, but you should be able to find a spot within a block or around the corner. Enter from a private deck, two steps down into a former workshop, turned into a cozy, comfortable space about the size of an average hotel room. The walls and ceilings are paneled with birch plywood. The steel fasteners are exposed. The floor is painted concrete. A remote-controlled ceiling fan keeps the room comfortable in summer or winter. Heat comes from an efficient, electric, convection heater mounted on a wall at waist-level. Two pendant shop lights, and a light on the ceiling fan, provide the main lighting. There is a floor lamp by the table, and two reading lamps fastened to the bed. All shelving is open, and also made from birch plywood, keeping with the room's industrial theme. The kitchenette comes with a compact refrigerator/freezer, two-burner induction cooktop, compact dishwasher, microwave, electric kettle, toaster, coffee grinder, French press coffee maker, colander, mixing bowl, dishes, glasses, utensils (including corkscrew, can opener), skillet, sauce pan, and cutting board. A flat-screen TV is mounted on the wall, and comes with cable service. If you have a Netflix account, you can stream videos as well. There is a clock radio/iPod dock on the nightstand. Both wired, and wireless internet are provided. Room has a multi-purpose table with two drop-leaves, suitable for eating or working. The unit also comes with a stacked washer and dryer, full-size ironing board and iron. Guests can check in 24/7 on their own, as the unit is equipped with a keyless deadbolt that unlocks using a numerical code. The bathroom has a tiled shower with a thermostatic valve, allowing you to preset the temperature. Towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hairdryer are provided. The queen-size bed has a memory foam mattress, and comes with a down comforter. An armless easy chair sits at the foot of the bed. For families with infants, there is a portable crib available on request. The place works for couples and couples with an infant. I don't recommend this space for parties larger than that. Guests have exclusive use of the deck, and shared use of the backyard. I live here in the main house and work from home at least half of the time, so I'm often just a few steps away. Interaction is typically very minimal - you'll have your peace and privacy - but I'm generally available to help with requests. This house is located at the nexus of four of the north end's most amenity-rich neighborhoods; Wallingford, Fremont, Phinney Ridge, and Green Lake. The Woodland Park Zoo and Rose Garden are only a one-minute walk away. The unit is close to three major bus lines (the E-line express, No. 5, and No. 44). Downtown Seattle is a 10-15 minute ride, as is Ballard and the University of Washington. There is ample parking on the street for those with cars; you can find parking on our block almost all the time. I also host AirBnb guests in the house, so you might see other travelers coming and going. Street parking only for guests - both driveways have to remain clear. Parking is easy to find during the day, harder as it gets later, but you shouldn't ever have to park more than a block or two away.
