The parking can be difficult to navigate if you are not familiar with the area. I was not aware that I had to register at one location and stay in another, so that was a bit overwhelming. Also, not having a bathroom in the room was a bit frustrating. However, the property itself was great, and the staff was extremely helpful!

I love the people who work for the Ballard Inn, and the area is perfect to visit Seattle. The gym accompanying the Ballrd Inn is the best part.

The room was fine, bed comfortable. It was extremely difficult to find a temporary parking place to check in, so as to be able to access the parking garage.

Everything was actually nice EXCEPT we didn’t pay close enough attention (neither did the other couple on our floor) because there is no bathroom. There is a shared bathroom in the hallway.

As long as you are ok with the shared bath situation, this little sister of Hotel Ballard is a great deal. Ideally located, very comfortable beds, and way quieter than we expected given the busy and vibrant neighborhood. Staff was great as well.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Our room and stay received an excellent rating because we reserved a room with a bathroom. We could not imagine having a shared bath and toilet.

Hotel a little dated but cute and clean. Comfortable bed. The athletic club pass was a huge bonus!
Verified review

6/10 Good

Staff was great! Location was awesome and felt very safe! Room was clean. Room was also facing busy streets so it was noisy late into the night. Earplugs were provided. The first night the room was too warm, so they provided a fan the second night which was a win to cool things down as well as drown out the noise. The bed was really hard…
Verified review

Our room was beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The only things that could be improved are having to go across the street to get ice and no phone in the room.
