Overall a great option if you are looking for anything that's budget friendly and close to Seattle DT. I was worried that I wasn't able to check in late since I thought their check in time is until midnight, but then I called to confirm that they do have late check-ins till 2 am which is convenient. The front desk lady was very generous and friendly, and gave out clear instructions for the room policy and how to access the gate. The room was overall very clean and tidy, I would suggest adding a hair dryer if there's an option but they do provide the essentials such as face/body soap, shampoo and toothbrush + tooth paste. On the con side, there are mostly fast food restaurants around the area, not much dining options if you are looking for different food options.

Gated parking was great. Slept well - nice bed. Shower was hot and good water pressure. Could use some hooks or something to hang things on. Luggage rack to leave your suitcase on would be helpful. Had a nice little table and chairs in a "kitchen" area. Overall great stay - especially for the price. Would recommend for anyone on a budget.

The shower seemed like it could have been a bit more clean, bed was comfy, liked the added measure of the gate for the parking lot, very affordable, very friendly and welcoming staff both at check in and check out, good size room for 2 people.

Very nice facility in a sketchy neighborhood. The limited access through the gate and well lit parking lot provide actual security along with the feeling of being secure. This place is a diamond in the rough. Nice clean basic rooms, almost squeaky clean. Seems to be freshly painted. Bed very comfortable. Front desk staff great. If I still had my own business, I'd hire the front desk lady for sure.

The staff here was incredibly friendly; I had a great experience. Loved that it was a gated facility because this area is definitely not for the faint of heart. My one complaint about the room is the floors were filthy. My brand new socks turned black on the bottoms in 5 minutes so I wore my shoes the rest of the time I was in the room.

Its a sketchy area. But this hotel had a security gate which made all the difference. Its clearly a completely renovated hotel. Very comfortable beds and covers. I cant say enough good things. Thanks!
