Ballard Inn

Location was fantastic! Right in the heart of DT Ballard and a block from our show’s venue. So nice they had a parking garage ($25 fee for overnight) as street parking was hard to come by. Bed and pillows were super comfy. Our check-in person was exceptionally friendly. We didn’t use them but I believe you get free gym passes to the Olympic club gym next door.

Shared bath was okay- two toilet rooms (small) and one shower room (very clean). Our room was right on the street so there was some noise but they provided earplugs and the a/c acted like white noise. Room was very small but had everything we needed.

Great location for purpose of my trip. Staff of the hotel was always courteous and helpful.

Seems to be an expensive neighborhood. Ok since most planned activities are also in the neighborhood.

Close to good food and music

The history of the place and clean, comfortable too

Convenient location, very walkable around the hotel.

1. Windows were overlooking the street that's full of bars and it was EXTREMELY noisy at night. 2. Shared bathrooms were not very clean (we stayed in a room with shared facilities). 3. We stayed 3 nights and on the first day our room was tidied up in a usual way (fresh towels, etc) but on the 2nd day it was not. 4. Bed was very soft and plush, to the point where your spine bends and it feels like sleeping in a hammock - which my back did not like.
