About this property

Modern Studio Retreat in Sunset Hill, Ballard!

Visit Golden Gardens park (1 mile), Ballard Locks (.5 mile), or Downtown Seattle (2 miles). This lower level MIL apartment features VIEWs of the Space Needle and Mount Rainier from the property. No detail has been overlooked to ensure your stay is seamless and unforgettable!

Guests enjoy high-quality soaps, linens, King size bed, extra towels, and bathrobes. Large dining table also functions as a great workstation. Plenty of storage for longer stays!

Downtown Ballard is well known as the cultural heartbeat of the city with its art galleries, shopping, eateries and bars / nightlife. Don't miss the infamous Ballard Farmer's Market held every Sunday all year long (rain or shine!)

Lovely basement flat

Payton was a perfect host - communicative and attentive. The basement flat is just as advertised. The bed is comfy and the Nespresso is a treat! The neighborhood is quaint and walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, the arboretum and The Canal. If your visit includes a Sunday, the Ballard Market is a must! Because it is a basement flat, there is some overhead noise and parking is first come, but we didn’t have any problems.

Great location for exploring Seattle

My toddler and I just needed a place to sleep for our night in Seattle, and this place was comfortable and easy to access. I'd definitely stay here again.

Great stay in Seattle

The property was in the basement of a house centrally located in Ballard. It was very clean and well-appointed. The only thing is you can hear the owner walking around upstairs in the house very early in the morning. Otherwise, it was a great stay, and I would recommend it if you are staying in that area of Seattle.

This is in a great location in Ballard and quite walkable from the center of downtown Ballard. Beautiful neighborhood. Easy walk to the Locks. The studio is exactly as described, and very comfortable. Bathroom and shower excellent. Some overhead noise from homeowners, but that is to be expected in a basement. Only real concern was that the outside light on the staircase was not working and very dangerous arriving in the dark my first night. When I alerted owners, they turned on an indoor basement light at night which lit the stairs as well. I was not familiar with Apple TV, so had difficulty using the remotes to watch it. I highly recommend this place very much. You won't be disappointed.

Lovely apartment, very comfortable bed, great location!

The check-in process was easy, Payton the host was a wonderful communicator, and the apartment was very nicely equipped and very comfortable. The neighborhood is wonderful and great for walking around in, close to lots of excellent restaurants and parks and a fifteen minute drive from being downtown at all the big attractions! We slept extremely well in the very very comfortable bed, and because the apartment is in the basement, it stayed nice and cool despite the 94°F weather! We will definitely be back!
