This worked out quite nicely for our family. The location was convenient via car to both downtown and Ballard. The bed was very comfortable, the futon worked nicely for our kids and the bathroom, while small, was nice with a good shower. The kitchen was also quite usable and nice. Laundry facilities were available with little hassle.

The floor is a bit thin, so if you are hypersensitive about noise (which we are not), the occassional walking of the people above might be a detraction. Host was readily accessible via email during our stay and helped us figure out the wifi access.
