The queen size bed looked like a full and the towels were pretty much falling apart. Also, they charge for wireless internet. In the dining facilities, the service was the worst I've ever had/

Perfect location, not enough parking, rooms were very musty smelling not aired out, maid service is great, front desk should give out parking permit on checkin instead of warnings on guest vehicles, free coffe but you have to pay for bottled water, restaurant should take room service orders after 9 p.m.

This centrally-located hotel was clean and comfortable and the employees were friendly. The restaurant offered really good food at a reasonable price. The room decor needs some spiffing up, but is fine for the price.

This hotel wasn't terrible, but it wasn't nice either. The bed was small and the mattress was hard, but it was clean. The location is great. It is within walking distance of the Market and seemed to be in a safe area of town. One thing I didn't expect was to pay $10/night for parking! Just be ready because depending on how long you stay, parking can add a lot to your final bill.

This hotel is not the fanciest you will stay at, but the price and the location were great. You are walking distance from many attractions, rooms were always cleaned, staff was friendly and there is limo service to the airport for the same price as a taxi. We were very pleased and had a great stay in Seattle.

I was visiting Seattle for a conference and the conference hotel was very expensive. We chose to stay here for the location, which was great. It was walking distance from so many things. The room was small but clean, customer service was very friendly and helpful, overall we had no complaints. We would stay there again without question.

The hotel is the cheapest we found in down town area. The location is great, it is close to the shopping district of 6th Ave and Pike Market. But the bathroom is small, and the room has poor sound insulation. We can hear the other guest walking above us late at night and early morning. Overall, we got what we pay for. We will reserve a room on the top floor next time.

Worst stay at a hotel ever. The elevators smell, the rooms are old and dirty and it felt like springs would bust out of the mattress at any time. All night we heard thumping of music from across the street. Highlight of the night was hearing gunshots and police sirens. Not a place I would ever stay in again.

This was my first visit to Seattle. The front desk clerk was rude, the elevator had an order, the carpet in the room was stained in several areas (I kept my socks on) and the bathroom faucet had more water pressure than the shower. Hair was also in one of the (so-called clean) towels which made me want to start bringing my own towels..Would not stay here again.

Just like the other reviews, I agree that the location is the best attribute of this hotel. The neighborhood isn't that sketchy, though. For the price you pay, you get a clean room (a little outdated and old decor) at walking distance from all downtown attractions and you get to park your own vehicle. A definitle bonus. The front desk was absolutley rude, as was the reservations line. If you are going to Seattle on the cheap and want to experience downtown life, it is perfect. But don't expect to be blown away.
Pros:
location
Cons:
the service, the lobby

I have to agree with everyone - the place smells bad. I walked over to the store and bought some spray so we could tolerate it. The location is excellent - the shuttle for the airport leaves from a hotel a block or two away which worked well for us since we were on foot. Close to a lot of things - room was clean - bathroom is small but clean - desk help was very pleasant to deal with.
