Base yourself in laidback Greenwood, north of downtown Seattle, for access to a number of quality breweries, coffee shops, and parks, and stay in this second-floor apartment to step into the 1960s.

Pour a whiskey at the well-stocked bar and then migrate to the private rooftop lounge, where a Finnish sauna beckons.
