This is a unique property in an incredibly convenient and fun location. The apartment is very clean and comfortable, but we were barely there. Being in this part of Ballard and having limited time in Seattle, we wanted to get out and explore! We took advantage of both its walkability and terrific access to public transit. I don't think we could have asked for a better location.
We were warned about the construction immediately adjacent to the apartment and the first morning it did wake us up (7am), but the second morning was quieter and ear plugs probably would have done the trick in either case. As mentioned, we didn't have much time so we just used it as an alarm clock - no big deal.
Communication was great and the apartment is very well equipped if you were going to spend more time there, utilize the kitchen, etc. I hope we can return in the near future!
