Location was perfect between lots of restaurants and bars. We had beautiful weather during the stay and were able to enjoy the sound of the rain hitting the leaves of the trees. Walking to/from this location is easy from the bus system. The powder rooms were always spotless. The portable AC unit in the room also cooled the area effectively and allowed us to remain comfortable. I did not think it was too noisy and we had no issues with the nightlife.

You can't beat the location. You can wake up in the morning on Sundays and the Ballard market is just outside your door. There are so many great restaurants within steps. The beds are so cozy and the facility is well kept.

If you don't like the idea of a hostel style shared bathroom situation this place isn't for you.

We really enjoyed this facility. You must bear in mind it is an old building in a funky part of town. There is no breakfast but as we don't eat breakfast this is not a loss; there was good local coffee available and that is all we asked for. There are several places nearby serving coffee and pastries if you need that. The room was clean and comfortable and appears to have been recently renovated. The location suited us as we wanted to attend an event nearby. The street has an urban ambiance without the "issues" that plague a downtown location.

Great small boutique hotel, minor ammenities but all really clean and nice and bed super comfie… we shared facilities and they were super clean and it was not awkward

I liked it all, would have been nice to have a person at front desk but it was no problem

The location was superb. The bathroom was right across the hall from our room which was convenient.

The choice/theme of the decor was not my personal style but that’s me being nit-picky. I also would have preferred a hair dryer in the room instead of the bathroom. I felt like i was taking up too much bathroom time when only one of them had a shower.

Location and price were excellent, very clean and charming and sharing a restroom and shower was perfectly fine! Coffee in lobby so it was great

No one at front desk but you just went next door to check in.

Great location and charming environment

External noise from people on the street in the very early morning. Old building so noice insulation is not up to modern standards. They did provide ear plugs in the room.

This property is owned by and next door to the Ballard Hotel. This is an 'al a cart' type room. It is small, the toilets and shower are just down the hallway...but for the price it is GREAT!

I was very happy considering it was a great price

Very central location. Access to amazing gym and swimming facilities. Lots of character and charm in hotel as well as street

Because it’s an old building, there is a bit of noice

This is a sister inn of the Ballard Hotel, and I got to use the same amenities as those who stay at the hotel. The highlight is the Olympic gym access. The location is so close to many restaurants and bars

I wish my room was slightly bigger
