Mariann's bedroom was a lovely place to stay in Seattle. It is about a 5 minute walk to a few coffeeshops/restaurants, and a 20 minute walk to more microbreweries and cool restaurants in Ballard. Quiet residential neighborhood. The room is a little small, but we were visiting friends and checking out Seattle so it was not an issue - I wouldn't recommend if you want to spend a lot of time in the room, although there is a great little garden out back. Separate entrance so we had a lot of privacy and since we were there on the weekend we basically had the bathroom to ourselves.
