A hamburger joint Scooter’s and a nice big grocery store (QFC) with free underground parking for getting your groceries.

The Neighborhood.

Ballard was a city of its own in the past founded when cars didn't exist. It was later absorbed by its bigger sister city Seattle. For this reason, it can still feel like a small town retaining its downtown, working waterfront and old businesses open to date. Many warehouses and storefronts though, have been converted to tasty new restaurants, like our favorite Mexican, La Carta de Oxaca on Ballard ave.

Public Transportation.

Seattle is a city with a solid public transportation when it comes to buses.
We are located less than half a block from the bus stop. You can take routes #18 and #40 at our block corner of 24th and 64th; both will take you to downtown Seattle. Route #40 also goes to the Northgate Mall in its northbound route. Route #44 on Market Street will take you to UW.
If you have a smart phone you can use Google maps and chose the public transportation option when planning your route. You may also find very useful the OneBusAway App with real time transit information, timetables and route planing. This App was first develop here at home at the UW and it is now in use all over the US and abroad.

Another great stay!
This is my 4th or 5th stay at the Ballard Studio. As always, it’s very clean and very convenient to my son’s house. Now in late Spring, the backyard is beautiful and inviting. But I will continue to stay here because Monica and Mario go above and beyond as hosts. This time I really wanted to watch an award show on TV. I couldn’t get it to work so first Monica and then Mario came over on a SUNDAY afternoon to set it up so I could watch the show. And it was Fathers’ Day! They took care of their guest anyway. Thank you again for making everything perfect!

Great location with guaranteed parking space
Great location in Ballard and easy walk to Ballard downtown. Great restaurants, bars & grocery store right around the corner. Clean studio with cute little backyard to enjoy some sun. Basic kitchen equipment but didn’t use it much with all the wonderful food choices around. Studio came with all the necessities you’ll need. We loved that we had a guaranteed parking space in the driveway, which is a hard perk to find. The owner Mario was very responsive & helpful.

Ballard Studio
Very nice studio apartment, in a great location in Ballard. Easy walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants. Designated parking space which is terrific since street parking can be quite difficult. The studio is well equipped, with a comfortable king bed, sitting area, dining table, a small but very usable kitchen, and a sunny private back yard.

This is my 2nd stay here and as before, it was perfect. It’s a great location- walking to the main shops of Ballard and the locks is easy to do. It’s also quiet so a good night’s sleep got me ready for the next day’s activities. Thanks Monica and Mario!

Quiet and well-located
I had a great stay here. The property is very close to restaurants, coffee shops, and fun stores to shop, yet it is tucked in a quiet street. So, lots to do nearby during the day, a good night’s sleep to end the day. Mario and Monica were great hosts. They respond quickly if you have a question and I love that they provided bikes. I didn’t use the bikes this time, but I will next time bc I definitely will be booking here again when I visit my mom and brother.

Well appointed and close to family
We were very happy with the property- the bed was most comfortable and the owners had thoughtfully included toiletry items and kitchen items one might forget. It was only several miles away from the family we were visiting and having a parking space was a must in that popular part of Ballard.

Amazing Stay - I would stay here again
This is a great location in Old Ballard. The efficiency is clean, and most importantly it is quiet. It's an easy walk to public transportation - Get the Seattle Transit Go Ticket app, and riding the bus is simple.You can be in downtown Seattle in thirty minutes or so. If you decide not to head into Seattle, it's a half mile walk down hill to many great restaurants with some unexpected hidden gems.There is a great bakery, Korean, and Sir Lankan just to name a few. For older folks such as myself having a transit day pass makes getting back to the vrbo much easier.It's just a few short stops back up the hill. If I was traveling back to Seattle this is the place I would stay. The hosts are great to work with, and with public transportation just two short blocks away you will be glad you stayed.
