Convenient but with problems!
A guest from Flagstaff, AZ does not recommend this property.
Stayed for 5 days in October, 2011
Don't plan on parking in the garage. We had a standard car and it drove right into the garage with about an inch for the door to close but backing out was a trial. The neighbor in one of the attached houses says the garages are big enough for storage! He is right. Dishwasher didn't work and the washing machine screamed. Can't use the fireplace unless you move the two chairs on either side because the leather(not!) gets very hot!!! It is hard to find a place for them. It was very convenient for us. We had a wedding in Ballard and we could walk to the venue. It was clean.

Great Condo; Bad Parking
A guest from Millersburg, OH recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in September, 2011
WE stayed at the Northwesterner Townhouse on the Labor Day weekend for my son's wedding in Ballard. There is 1 parking space in the garage. We had 3 cars and numerous vistors as this was headquarters for all of the groom's family. We had to park all cars about 3 to 5 blocks form the condo. If we unloaded in front of the garage for 10 minutes, the neighbors immediately complained. The adjacent neighbor has a garage but he always parked in front of his condo entrance making getting our 7 passenger rental van hard to get into our garage. We had no garage door opener but the Sea to Sky people immediately brought one over, Thank you. We also had no way to change channels on the big flat screen TV in the lower bedroom as that required a "Comcast" remote. So every time you want to change the channel you had to walk upstairs and borrow the Comcast remote from the living room TV. Sea to Sky had no fix for that problem. For a cost of $350 per night you should buy a remote. Otherwise the place was great for our 6 guests and baby.

August trip to Seattle for family wedding from Vermont
Christopher C. from New Haven, VT recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in August, 2011
The Northwesterner in Ballard was a great place to stay for a week in August. Luckily, our weather couldn't have been better the entire time! Ballard turned out to be the perfect neighborhood to stay. Lots of food and shops within walking distance, a great grocery store about three blocks away, and a great local farmers market on Sunday. The townhouse was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen had virtually everything we needed to prepare meals. There were three things we noticed that could be improved. 1. The bed(s) in the smaller of the two rooms upstairs were too big for the room. 2. The gas grill on the deck was extremely close to the wall of the building. 3. The tv in the living area seemed to get a lot less channels than the one in the bedroom upstairs (or the instructions on how to use them weren't clear). Overall, our family had a wonderful stay and would reccomend it to anyone and would come back to stay there again.

Lovely Home
Mary Anne C. from Boonton, NJ recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in August, 2011
The Northwesterner was a beautiful home with all the accouterments for a comfortable stay. We are a large family visiting Seattle for a family member's wedding. The Northwestern is centrally located in Ballard which made it easily walkable to shops, restaurants and The Sunday market.

A great place to stay for our family vacation!
A guest from VANCOUVER, BC recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in July, 2011
Pros:- perfect size for our family of 6 adults and 2 kids- very clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated- very comfortable beds and pillows- gorgeous upstairs bathroom with shower and large tub (great for washing the kids in!)- three bathrooms made it easy to accomodate so many people- spacious, well-stocked kitchen- very convenient location to restaurants, grocery stores, etc.- short, easy drive into Seattle's attractionsCons:- two out of three nights, when we arrived back at the home, there was a car parked in front of the garage, and we had to find street parking- street parking was hard to find sometimes since we had more than one car

wedding party rental
Cynthia S. from Mount Veron, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 4 days in May, 2011
our first nite we came home to park our car in the garage and there was a car in the driveway right up to our garage. It was 11at nite as we just came from the rehearsal dinner so did not want to wake the neighbors up but was unable to use the garage like we were told we could with the rental. the party that parked there left around 8am. It was a suburu wagon and a blonde lady drove off in it. That was upsetting at that late of nite to try and find parking in the nite and we were very tire.

The property exceeded our expectation. We really enjoyed all of the extras that were in the condo. The Kitchen was incrediably well stocked and had everything we needed to prepare meals. The Parking was a challenge (as we had a Mini-Van)... but were told that before hand. We enjoyed Seattle -- even though it RAINED everyday -- and had a great time visiting family.

Beets a hotel room...
Leslie R. from Lancaster, California recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in February, 2011
The Northwesterner in Ballard, Seattle, Washington is clean, well stocked(they thought of everything), and charmingly decorated. It's in delightful neighborhood that oozes with Seattle charm. It's a mere few miles to downtown or pretty much any of main areas of interest. We liked having our privacy, unlike a hotel would offer. The price breakdown also makes this a better deal than your local inns. But the best part is it's more like a home than just a temporary room. Also in closing, I would like to add that the young man who helped us(Brian) was awesome. He really went the extra mile to make our stay really special.

Nice place to stay in a good location
A guest from Round Rock, TX recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in September, 2010
This was a great place to stay for a family of six. The house was clean and nicely furnished. The location was good - in central Ballard and about 15-20 mins from Pike's Place with a bus route that goes almost directly there. The neighborhood was a mix of new condos for urban professionals and older houses and apartments. It seemed safe and mostly family oriented. There was a good mix of coffee shops, stores and restaurants within walking distance.

A guest from Shorewood, WI recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in August, 2010
Very difficult to park, especially with Ford Explorer. Vehicles on both sides of street and right next to and behind drive- a real challenge to get in and out of property. Encourages walking. Property itself very new and up to date. Beds extremely comfortable. No problems. But parking is a real challenge and also difficult to find location to park nearby on street.

Second visitor to the Norwesterner in Ballard
cyril b. from Spring Hill, KS recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in August, 2010
We enjoyed our stay at the Northwesterner. It is so close to the locks, and to downtown Ballard, that walking is mandatory. It is also very close to downtown Seattle, Fremont, and Lake Union. And best of all you are a short drive away from the Sunset watching place above the beach. A must see on a day you can see the sun. The property is clean, comfortable and very livable. Parking is a bit of a problem. Backing onto a street with cars parked on both sides takes some getting used to. Overall a great experience.
