My husband and I stayed here for 5 days while we took day trips to the mountains. It is located in the Ballard community which is oh so cute! There are plenty of local spots within 5 blocks. The apt was clean, and has all that one needs for a comfortable stay. This area is a great place to stay in, it is covered with little shops and great restaurants. Ballard area is not hard to get in and out of should you want to venture out of the city. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to get more of the locals vibe.
