I loved my stay at the Bal Vic SO much- and am already thinking about my next stay there. The house was even better than described, it's very spacious, comfortable, quiet, and the garden outside is just gorgeous. Location is ideal, and the walk into the main area of Ballard is just a few blocks. Parking spot was really easy to park in even with a compact SUV. Kitchen is a dream and stocked with everything you will need. Mary and Robert were so easy to communicate with, and made my stay a breeze. Can't recommend this place enough.
