No maintenance personnel after sunset.
The hotel and room was excellent, however, we had an issue with a clogged toilet and the hotel doesn’t have a house keeping or maintenance person after specific time. we called the front desk to request a person to unclogged the toilet and no one was available except the front desk person. I asked him to give me the plunger so I can unclog it myself, which he was not able to find one. I had to get up around 3 am to the lobby from the 4 th floor just to urinate at the lobby restroom. The front desk person finally left the plunger at our room at 7am and I finally unclogged the toilet my self.

I am hesitant to provide a glowing review due to the fact that I’d like to have an available room next visit. To be fair, it truly is four stars. Staff, location to restaurants, points of interest and recreation, cleanliness, amenities. We sincerely had a wonderful visit and staff allowed us to hang around an hour later due to flight timing. I recommend Hotel Ballard.
