I liked the area and the building with near parking spots.
Did not like the mattrass, and the stumbling floors of people above...but OK, for the price I paid.
Thank you

Do your research before booking
I had a very poor check-in process as it took me over an hour and a half to gain access to the property after being bounced around to people and each time the person not doing what they said they were going to do. When I finally did receive the check-in process email they sent an invoice for the wrong amount for cleaning. The experience is a mess. Research your options and just know this may not go as planned.
There are very few well-priced places in the Ballard area. Sweet Suites provides a great and clean alternative to a hotel without being too costly. They tried to think of everything you might need while away from home - and provide it! The room had a microwave, stove, and a mini-fridge - helping with those food costs as eating out is pricey in that area. I struggled a little with the access codes, but once I figured it out, it was not difficult. There is very little parking around there and I recommend not having a vehicle.

Parking is difficult, not many spaces on the street. But, the neighborhood is pleasant Especially Scandinavian Gift-Grocery.
Kitchen is adequate, seating in room only on stools.
My only issues were the hard bed and no curtains. The shades are fine, but they still let in a lot of light at night. Other wise, it was a nice place.

Loss of power?
Overall our stay was good, the property served it purpose. My only complaint was that the power to our room was cut off when we woke up, which was weird since the rest of the house had power! Which made getting ready in the morning slightly inconvenient, but we were leaving anyway, so I didn’t reach out.
Nice room, very clean. Communications were great. There was a little noise between rooms, especially the upper floor, not a big deal. It was a great place to stay and this will be my go to place when I visit my family.
Very small and basic but all you need for a place to sleep/rest. The downside is the walls are paper thin and noises, walking, tv etc is constant. If you’re a light sleeper, may not be for you, otherwise a great cheap stay
Overall, this property is well kept and a good place to stay. The only down-side is the 10am check-out time. If you're planning on a late night out in Seattle, you might consider a place with a later check-out time.

Everything was super officious if a bit sterile. Very much a short stay situation rather than a hotel though. But parking was an absolute nightmare every night when we got back. I'm talking 3-5 block walk every every night and morning. Not exactly the fault of the landlord but be wary if you're arriving with a car.
The property is very charming and cozy, and it's located right across from a high school. There aren't many parking spots during the day, but there are plenty in the evening. While I was there, the power went out around 2 or 3 AM after I used the stove in my room. I texted the property owner, not expecting them to answer so late, but I was happy when they replied quickly. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely think about coming back again!
I had a great stay. Everything was very smooth and directions were very clear.
Many great spots on Market street which was a nice walk and I was able to head into downtown for the main attractions by taking the D line right where I needed to go.
It was more than a bit confusing having to another website to pay the cleaning fee. The email that directed us to this external website said clearing to not give a credit card number to any outside websites.
The property manager was very responsive when I had trouble getting into my room, it was great to have such rapid and helpful communication, no matter the hour!

This is my second stay at this property. The first time was a year and a half ago. I decided to return because I had a favorable experience. This visit, however, the outside around the building as well as items in my room need attention. Chipped pain around the base boards. Shelves to serve purpose of end table unstable ( I refrained from placing anything on one because I was afraid it would fall off the wall), large piece on end of 'table' broken off. When I arrived, I was able to enter front door using the assigned code. However, it took 30 minutes and several text messages to get into my sleeping room. On the positive side, the bathroom was clean and I appreciated a nice hot shower. My recent experience left me disappointed. I don't plan to return.
