If you are planning to visit Seattle, and wish to stay in a private house, on a quiet street, with attractive and modern amenities, Shelley has an ideal location. My wife and I stayed with our 11 year old son, and it was very comfortable for all. This Ballard location is also easy walk to transit with direct access to downtown Seattle, Space Needle, Pike Street Market, Ballard Locks, etc.. It also provided safe street parking, so we could park and did not have to drive again until our departure.
