I stayed at Charlie’s for several months while I was on a travel nursing assignment. I loved the cozy, stylish feel from the start. Lots of art, much of which was created by Charlie himself, and vintage decor. I was blown away by how quiet it is given the super close proximity to the main street of historic Columbia City, which is lined with bars, restaurants, shops, coffee spots, and breweries. A really happening place. The place is stocked full of everything you need, whether staying for one day or many. The bed is ultra comfy, not too soft or firm. The back yard space is big and perfect for relaxing around the fire. TONS of hummingbirds. I also loved how close it is to the interstate and how quickly I was able to get to hiking and skiing. Parking is available at the end of the block and was never an issue. Ten minutes to downtown Seattle by car. Ten minute walk to the light rail station. Thirty minute walk to Lake Washington. Charlie was kind, welcoming, and quick with replies. Very helpful with anything I needed. I can’t wait to stay here again any time I’m in the area.
