The Cozy Ballard Cottage exceeded my expectations. Check in was very easy, the place was so inviting and welcoming. Kelly and Bente have done a great job at making it a private, welcoming, and cozy cottage - even leaving some welcome snacks! Such a nice touch! Bente was so welcoming and they offer great resources in person and in the cottage to help navigate Ballard and Seattle! Ballard is amazing! Such a great neighborhood with so many amazing place to explore around every corner. We didn't want to leave! I wish we had more time to spend with Bente (Kelly was out of town unfortunately). I hope to come out and visit again and will definitely stay here if available! A plus - the bed was probably the most comfortable I have ever slept on!
