This place was quaint and quiet, clean and comfortable. And full of all kinds of small thoughtful things. We stayed 4 nights and it was great for our needs. We recommend it!!
Absolutely loved our stay here! Nice, comfortable accommodations, great location, and loved extra amenities. As former Ballard residents who visit annually, we hope to come back!

Great time of year!
Stay was amazing. It was very clean, private and easy access to many places. I would definitely recommend if anyone looking for a place to stay in Ballard or Sunset Hills neighborhood.

So happy you came to stay from Japan I believe, and thank you. Please come back soon!
The accommodation was well thought out and well stocked. Our hosts were very responsive and the price point was reasonable. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood and into the main part of Ballard where there are excellent restaurants and shops.
This place is perfect for two people. We enjoyed the lovely, quiet neighborhood, and were centrally located to all of the activities we were attending and family we were visiting. The bedroom and bathroom are nice, and we were quite comfy there. The yard is perfect for an afternoon or evening get together. Since it is relatively small indoors, we brought back sandwiches and drinks from a local place (plenty of good food nearby) after walking around Ballard locks and had a nice picnic out there. It was nice to have the parking in the back of the property as well. The hosts were responsive and very helpful.Even though we have family in the area (it was a full house on this visit), we may choose to stay here next time for our own peace and comfort anyway. It was totally worth it.

Great location with easy parking. Kitchen had everything we needed and the upstairs living and sleeping area was cozy and worked fine for us. Thanks again!
Great location to be able to explore the area easily. Loved that were bikes available to use. Had all the basic necessities and it was easy to check in/check out.

The owners communicate and check in with you. Perfect little spot in Ballard and historic Ballard is walkable. Great place to stay.
It was a good experience, very comfortable stay when we locked ourselves outside they came in the middle of the night and open the door for us owners are very easy to get a hold of would gotta come back again
This place allowed us to explore Ballard and the rest of Seattle with ease--and then to relax out on the deck and enjoy a great view when we got back. Would highly recommend!

A good place to stay for our Seattle trip. Proximity to bus stop allowed us to navigate the city--with help from our "local" daughter.
