The parking was okay, glad there was a driveway and garage because the spot in front of the house was never available. The driveway is steep and narrow so it's hard to see pedestrians. The front door takes some effort to get open but never had any issues. The host was helpful and responsive and the location was great.

Loved our stay here. House just perfect. Plenty of comfortable beds/room. Little touches of stocked kitchen with necessary items was much appreciated. Close to public transport. Couldn't have been better. Well done.

Great location, very walkable area. It had everything we needed for a stay in Seattle!

Bryan and the Ballard Birdhouse made for an amazing VRBO experience. Bryan was responsive and had organized check-in/out in such a seamless way. Some highlights out of many:1. SO family-friendly! The pack-and-play, high chair, changing pad, and kid plates/cups/utensils and some toys were perfect for my baby/toddler. My older child enjoyed the games, books, and puzzles that added to the entertainment we had brought for the kids.2. Accommodating: my mother-in-law is allergic to nearly all fragrances, which I had mentioned to Bryan, and we noticed a new container of fragrance-free laundry detergent in the laundry area. 3. Hospitable: as tea/coffee enthusiasts, my family was thrilled to have lots of coffee and tea options provided. I loved being able to choose between a Chemex, French press, or standard drip coffee and to be able to grind my beans to the appropriate particle size.Some observations for future travelers: street parking was sometimes a bit difficult, but that could have been because we had rented a minivan that fit snugly into the garage and barely fit in the driveway without sticking into the sidewalk (a no-no!). For ease of getting in and out of the minivan, we preferred to park on the street. The house was kind of creaky and the doors sometimes stuck a bit in the frames, but these were really minor quibbles for an overwhelmingly positive stay. The family said we'd love to stay here again if ever we were back in Seattle. Thank you, Bryan!
