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.

the room was in a building not staffed close to the sidewalk. So small the bed took up all space in room no closet and the television required a computer specialist to make it work. The best thing about the room was a very comfortable bed
