Eva and Sid were great hosts - they communicated very well and responded to queries very quickly. Their townhome is very lovely, and close enough to walk to the commercial area of Ballard but far enough away for some quiet and privacy. Very central to main areas of Seattle. It is nice to have a guaranteed parking spot, street parking was hit or miss the days we were there. Another note about the neighborhood - the streets are two-way but only wide enough for one car to drive at a time since and cars are parked on both sides, which made driving (particularly a mini-van) very cumbersome and annoying at times, and we experienced long delays in getting around, especially during the weekend - just keep that in mind if choosing this neighborhood and if you have a large vehicle.
