The Ballard Blue Jay was just perfect - it was exactly as offered, spic'n'span clean, super simple check-in and check-out. I expect all of those at baseline when staying at an Air B' n'B, but the Blue Jay also featured a sweet vintage vibe, eclectic art and photography, funny little surprises in unexpected places, and the best DVD collection I've seen outside my own house. We never had to park farther away than the spot right in front of the house, and the neighborhood was perfectly quiet for morning and nighttime walks, but very close to conveniences. Christina was on-site and immediately available if needed - but we never needed anything. Really! The Blue Jay is now our "home away from home" when visiting family in Seattle.
