The Tiger Room is perfect. Beyond being comfortable, spacious, clean, and well-appointed, the book and CD collections were dreamy, and the yard and gardens are gorgeous. Shawn is a great human. He gave us excellent tips for exploring Ballard and the city at large, and the place has well-curated guides. Many great breweries and restaurants are within walking distance, and the rest can bed easily accessed via public transport. Just...stay here. Do it.
