    We enjoyed our stay at the Ballard Birdhouse. It’s an older residence that has retained a lot of its original character and charm. We were very comfortable there, it had everything we needed and the location was convenient. My daughter lives within walking distance and we also walked to the farmers market. The host, Bryan, was extremely accommodating and gracious. Thank you!

    This is a great property! We really enjoyed our stay. The coffee/tea bar was already well stocked, which was great for arrival. Off street parking was also a big plus. The small gym in the basement was also an added bonus. You are close to almost everything in Ballard. We would definitely stay here again. The host was also very responsive. Thank you for your hospitality!

    We loved this house and hopefully will be lucky enough to return. There were just two of us, but we easily could have had more. The house itself is warm and comfortable with a great kitchen, cozy living area, comfy beds with good linens and great showers! The parking worked great and the neighborhood is very sweet. We had a little confusion with the locked entry which the owner responded to immediately and kindly. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

    We returned back to the Birdhouse this year and everything went perfect. Place is located in a great area and the accommodations are clean and has easy check out. 10/10 would recommend.
    10.0 / 10.0
    We chose this location because it was very close to my son’s house. Not very close to downtown but perfect for our needs. My wife was not very impressed because the house was old but we soon came to realize that this was much more comfortable and cozy for the three of us. Two BIG pluses: the upstairs bedroom with a private bath gave my teenage son plenty of privacy. Also the basement was converted into a workout room/game-room, which we took advantage of.
    10.0 / 10.0
    Immaculate house in a quiet neighborhood, yet within walking distance to all the activity along the waterfront.
