Corner Unit in the middle of it all – 99 Walkscore

Corner Unit in the middle of it all – 99 Walkscore Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Corner Unit in the middle of it all – 99 Walkscore, you immediately get that “I’m in the heart of everything” feeling that makes Seattle so addictive. This three-star spot sits right on 2nd Avenue in Belltown, and honestly, the location alone makes it worth considering. The building has that classic Seattle vibe — not flashy, but solid and unpretentious in the way that locals actually appreciate. You know what really caught my attention though? The fact that they offer free parking in this neighborhood is almost unheard of.

The Belltown Advantage

Belltown is where Seattle gets interesting, and this place puts you right in the thick of it. You’re literally steps from Pike Place Market (I mean, you can walk there in under ten minutes), and the waterfront is just a short stroll downhill. What I love about this particular stretch of 2nd Avenue is that you’ve got everything from coffee roasters to late-night eateries within a couple blocks. The Space Needle? Yeah, you can see it from here, and it’s an easy walk when you want to do the tourist thing. But honestly, you’ll probably spend more time exploring the dozens of restaurants and bars that make this neighborhood feel alive at all hours.

The Space Itself

The corner unit setup gives you more windows than your typical hotel room, which means better light and street views that actually matter in this part of town. The space feels more like a well-appointed apartment than a standard hotel room — there’s room to spread out, and the layout makes sense for couples (which explains why so many pairs end up loving this place). It’s not trying to be upscale in an over-the-top way, but everything works well and feels thoughtfully arranged. The kitchen setup is particularly handy since you’re surrounded by Pike Place Market vendors if you want to grab fresh ingredients.

Getting Around

That 99 Walkscore in the name isn’t just marketing — it’s actually accurate. You can walk to most of what you’ll want to see in Seattle from here, and when you can’t walk, the transit connections are solid. The monorail to Seattle Center is close by, and you’ve got multiple bus lines running right past the building. But here’s the thing that really sets this apart: having that free parking means you can actually drive to places like the Fremont Sunday Market or take day trips to the islands without stressing about where to leave your car when you get back.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back to Corner Unit in the middle of it all – 99 Walkscore is that it strikes this perfect balance between being in the center of everything without feeling touristy or overpriced. You’re staying where actual Seattleites hang out, not in some sterile hotel district. The combination of walkability, free parking, and genuine neighborhood character is pretty rare — most places give you one or two of those things, but rarely all three. It’s the kind of spot where you end up discovering your new favorite coffee shop just by stepping outside, and that’s really what a good Seattle stay should feel like.

Reviews of Corner Unit in the middle of it all – 99 Walkscore

• Thaochau from United States – 29 July 2024 (8/10)

  The location in Belltown is great for anyone who would like to do the main touristy things (e.g., Pike Place, Space Needle, Chuhily Gardens, Olympic Sculpture Park along the waterfront), and the restaurants nearby are really good. Everything was about a 10-15 minute walk (even with a young child). There was also a dog park nearby. Free parking in a very secure garage in the building. The unit and building had great amenities that we wished we could have used more of (full kitchen, washer/dryer, indoor pool, gym, roof deck). This was one of the few places that was dog and kid friendly and had free parking included. The host Vince was nice enough and somewhat responsive via text. Kelli was a nice greeter.
  
  What could be improved: The location in Belltown isn’t what it used to be, as it’s quite noisy and has a lot more unhoused people who were yelling at night or motorcycle races down the street. Even with the windows closed, the street noise was very loud which might not be ideal for light sleepers or families with young children. You could hear trucks backing up and the birds throughout the night and early morning. If you’ve already done the touristy things and have a car, I’d recommend staying outside the city center a bit because the traffic can be quite bad. The property also had a lot of rules and was strict about access which made us so nervous and the deposit was $1000 for damages so I made sure to send images of damages noted as soon as we arrived. The bathroom fan wasn’t working and my child and I are sensitive to certain scents and cleaning products and Vince was responsive but did not address it adequately so that was a slight annoyance.

• Valentina from Canada – 2 May 2024 (6/10)

  What could be improved: We didn’t like that there was no one there to coordinate things with and everything seems so restricted. Location was terrible for us with lots of homeless drug addicts around the entrance door and the nearby streets.

• Ivan from United States – 2 February 2024 (6/10)

  Location was great. I appreciate the level of security. Love having a washer/drier. Lots of towels.
  
  What could be improved: The master bed was soggy in the middle. The second bed in the study was too large and made it hard to move around the room, also the reading lights above the bed did not turn on. The carpet in the condo needed shampooing. The bathroom exhaust fan did not work. The provided standing floor fans were full of dust and spewed it out when turned on. Overall the condo was dusty, pillows and sofa looked dingey and in need of shampooing. With three guests hot water ran out quickly. Listing emphasized thorough cleaning but everything but the kitchen needs a deeply clean. You can tell things have not been moved to clean and dusty floorboards, in other words expect motel 6 level cleanliness.
  Many hoops to jump through when signing agreement after booking on Priceline. Host was nice and greeter was great. I kept host informed of my changing check in time and he was flexible.

  Excellent location! Super clean and great communication with the host, I would highly recommend a stay here! We will be back for sure!

• Anne from Netherlands – 19 September 2023 (7/10)

• Valentin from Romania – 12 August 2023 (1/10)

• Sahaiza from Canada – 9 August 2023 (9/10)

  Location in the city, walking distance to attractions. Appliances in the apartment were all functional. Requested for portable AC and 2 were provided, one in living room and one in the bedroom. Not too noisy. Restaurants below the apartment complex, easy to find meals if you don’t feel like cooking. Convenience store nearby as well. Owners are very nice.
  
  What could be improved: The unit only has 2 bedrooms, the sofa bed is in the living room. Once the sofa bed is set, very little space to move around.
