Because it’s an old building, there is a bit of noice

Very central location. Access to amazing gym and swimming facilities. Lots of character and charm in hotel as well as street

Stayed in April 2024

External noise from people on the street in the very early morning. Old building so noice insulation is not up to modern standards. They did provide ear plugs in the room.

Great location and charming environment

Fri night/Sat night quite noisy but you have to understand you’re in the middle of a hip scene.

Street noise, as well as noise from other guests (especially after 1 AM having special times I'd rather not hear...). A lot of bars and restaurants nearby which is kind of nice, but I would have preferred a grocery store within 2 blocks instead. The nearest grocery stores are not far away but too far to feel comfortable walking there alone after 9pm. Other neighborhoods (Ravenna, Queen Anne, Fremont, Montlake, Bainbridge, etc.) are far more pleasant locations in my opinion. Ballard is very industrial and treeless. I won't stay in Ballard area again.

Room was clean and was ventilated (I could open the windows).

The rooms are so tiny; it's not a place to hang out, only to sleep. No fridge or microwave, and have to go across the street to get ice.

Perfect location, nice furnishings, clean bathrooms.

small rooms.

great location and deliciously soft sheets

The area is lively and quirky although quite far out of town. Tricky to find first time.

Paying for parking

Great location, comfy bed and pillows

Stayed in June 2022

The parking was odd as you have to check in at the Ballard Hotel and walk over to the building next door to get to your room, which I didnt mind, except it was close to midnight. Thankfully the amazing staff walked me over to the other building. The hair dryer blew out quite the disturbing odor upon use.

Loved the historical aspect! Cant express that part enough. The room was perfect size with bathroom included. The king bed was huge and super comfy. Loved all the details that made it feel historical

Booking advertised that it had an airport shuttle. It does not. You pay $75 one way with a Towncar company. Very good service, but not as advertised and my inexpensive hotel became expensive due to those fees.

SO beautiful and charming. I loved the history and the quaintness of it.

Great location. Felt like I was staying at my grandparent’s house.

Pay attention if the room you are booking is with the shared bathroom in the hall.

Great location and beautifully decorated. Staff was very friendly and accommodating of an early check in. Small extra touches like the bottle of water in the room and ear plugs were appreciated.

The shared bathrooms took me by surprise

Excellent location. Affordable by Seattle standards.

There is no AC so the inn gets rather warm. They do provide a room fan. The lobby is very tiny so there is no area to sit outside your room and use a laptop. The rooms are very tight so if you need to use a laptop you need to do it on your bed. It was a bit of a hassle having an inn staff member check to see if there were

Affordable budget hotel for a brief stay. We stayed 5 nights in a room with a king size bed on the second floor. The coffee in the lobby and free parking was great. There is free access to the gym next door but the group exercise classes are usually booked. My husband and I were able to attend one class each during our 5 night stay. The location in Ballard is perfect for strolling to the Carl English gardens and locks as well as the Sunday Ballard Farmers Market.

No one at front desk but you just went next door to check in.

Location and price were excellent, very clean and charming and sharing a restroom and shower was perfectly fine! Coffee in lobby so it was great

Stayed in April 2024

Awful checkin process, no front desk. This was not as described with shared bathroom and hostel like accommodations

Stayed in May 2024

That it’s a hostel style and no bathroom was in the room.

Close to everything.

Stayed in April 2024

I liked it all, would have been nice to have a person at front desk but it was no problem
