Barbara is a thoughtful and gracious host. The apartment is an architectural jewel, designed, built, decorated and equipped perfectly whether you stay for a weekend or far longer.
The unit is bright and incredibly comfortable with a high-end equipped kitchen and a great bathroom. Barbara even provides cozy robes! The bedroom is great with a very comfortable bed, a variety of duvet and lighter blankets and loads of space (closet and dresser) to unpack. Gorgeously finished concrete black floors have radiant heat.
The whole place is spacious and so calming. The wall color and furnishings gave us a very Zen/peaceful feeling. Entrance is private. Windows are double paned and we did not hear any noise (it seems there is construction on every block in Ballard. We also did not hear any footsteps or sound from our hosts who live above.
The location can't be beat. Walking distance from Market Street with the best restaurants and shops. QFC (upscale supermarket), is a quick walk. Will definitely stay again and again.
