The Ballard Inn, while smaller than the Ballard Hotel, is a gem of a property and we highly recommend it! The reception area is often closed so you have to go to the Ballard Hotel to get your room cards/check in, but it's only a couple of buildings down and not a hassle. The shared bathrooms are very well-maintained and clean; the rooms are small but beautiful and are the perfect size if you're staying in Seattle for a night or two. All in all, a great place with a wonderful history that shouldn't be overlooked!
