Check-in was down the street at a different hotel. The room was quite expensive for what we got; the room was quite small and the communal bathroom was a bit inconvenient. It's a good central location if you're spending time in Ballard.

Shared bathroom but a pretty cool older building. Walls are paper thin and no ac. It’s a bar area so expect to hear people tell about 4 am.

Good location but small rooms and a bit noisy
This is a historical hotel that has been fixed up but you have to understand that it’s small rooms and shared bathrooms/shower. There is no staff to greet you. It’s all done at their more expensive hotel a few feet down. The bed was very comfortable. It’s a bit noisy w thin walls and traffic going by. For what it is, the price is a bit too high.

Great location and the access to the gym is awesome. We didn’t realize when booking that the room had a shared shower and bathroom, but that was never a problem and the facilities were clean. Really comfortable bed.

We felt the property description was devoid of the limits in our room. No chair, no dresser, no in suite, very small room. The air conditioner was welcome but took up a fair share of our limited space and was very loud. It is clean with a large bed but in our opinion does not justify the price. For a little more you can get much more; you’re paying a lot for location which is great. Felt safe with a lively neighborhood.

Two day stay
It is a very quaint European style room. We didn’t spend much time in the room. It was in a great location in downtown Ballard, Washington. There is no one at the desk to assist in anything so you have to call them and the other location Ballard hotel, is just down the street. We would definitely stay again. It was the best location to walk around and see the sites.

My mistake but upon checkin we discovered our room did not have its own bathroom and was shared. The price did not reflect a tiny room with a shared bathroom. We checked out and booked at their sister property for triple the price. That room was fine. Again, the pricing did not reflect the level of amenities you would expect. No robe, no mini bar, coffee wasn’t great… just a ‘meh’ experience
