The Ballard Garden apartment was perfect for our trip to Seattle. Barbara was a wonderful host, making sure we had everything we needed. Her communication was quick and concise. The apartment was very clean and new. It was nice to have a full kitchen to make meals in. The bed was very comfortable. It was great to have wifi and cable tv access. It is about a mile walk to downtown Ballard which has neat shops and restaurants. There is a 7-11 around the corner and also the Tall Grass bakery which had delicious raspberry scones and fresh bread. We were close to the Rapid Ride D line bus which will take you right into Downtown Seattle. All in all we had a wonderful stay and I highly recommend the Ballard Garden Apartment.
