My boyfriend and I stayed at Amanda's studio in Ballard, and hada wonderful time. Her studio is is comfortable with an AMAZING bed and brand new bathroom, and there were the most delicious brownies waiting for us when we arrived. It's little touches like this that set's Amanda apart and makes for a lovely stay. Her place is very near all the action in Ballard, which is a very cute and trendy neighbourhood.Infact, we only ventured into the city centre once as Ballard has it all. There is a fantastic bakery, pizza place and Mexican within walking distance. I would definitely recommend Amanda's place to anyone staying in Seattle.
