Heather is a great host. All of the amenities she provides are great and welcome, especially the beer and wine! She definitely goes above and beyond to provide everything you need when travelling. Ballard is a great community and it was a pleasure to walk the neighborhood. Not as close to the light rail as I had thought and it ended up only saving me around $8 to take it as I still needed a lyft, so I would recommend using lyft or begging a friend if possible. Only bit of caution I have is for travellers arriving after dark: it is a dark and difficult path at points to get to the unit. Try to arrive before dark and it is more manageable or have a flashlight or you might trip and fall at a few places.
