Very clean, spacious and quiet place perfect for our needs. We were 3 adults and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

We had a delightful stay! This ground floor flat is spacious, with a big living room and--especially useful for parents with children--two separate bedrooms quite far apart from each other. The location is great, not far from Ballard businesses on one side and Shilshole (Ray's Boathouse, etc.) on the other. We met John, one of the owners, who was friendly and helpful. If we manage to return to Seattle, we'll try staying here again!

We had four adults, myself age 76, my wife 73, and my sister and brother-in-law ages 83 and 86. Everything was fine except the height of the tub made it very difficult for the octagenerians to get in

This flat was so comfortable and very clean. It is located very convenient and easy to get to and from. I really liked that the front door has a motion sensor that would turn on as you approached the door.

Great neighborhood spot- 1/2 block to coffee, restaurants, and 15 minute walk to Sunset Park! Close to the Locks, downtown Ballard, Shilshole Bay, Fisherman's Terminal, etc. Nicely appointed and plenty of room for our family of 5. Off street parking right in front. Owners helpful, but not intrusive.

The place was perfect for our visit to Seattle. Short distance from my son in Ballard. Waking distance to a charming local market. All the convenience we could want. The washer and dryer were a nice amenity. The weather was so beautiful, I hope you will consider adding some chairs outside, maybe on the side of the house, to enjoy sitting outside during the mornings and evenings. Would love to stay again on my next trip to Seattle.

We(two moms) came to visit our married children. This location was perfect for us, close to or kids, but also in a great neighborhood in Ballard. We were a quick walk from great restaurants, shopping and the Sunday market. The home itself was spacious, comfortable and quiet. Everything was brand new-the beds super comfortable!! We loved the gas fireplace and had a cozy fire anytime we were home. Our hosts had a great binder with suggestions on activities by season. We loved our stay here and will definitely book again if our kids stay in the area!

I loved my stay here! The area was downstairs in a beautiful house in Ballard, in a beautiful area of Seattle. The living area was very quiet, clean, maintained, and peaceful. I ADORED the layout and the fireplace! It felt just like home. The owners were also VERY helpful and friendly! There is also so much to see and great places to eat in the area. I will definitely stay here again if I ever find myself in the Seattle area anytime soon. I recommend this spot for anyone and everyone!!
