- ShengJu (9/5): - Friendly staff
- Singh (10/5): - Price self cooking and arund area
- Yannis (10/5): I like it so much - Location is great and you get to meet a lot of good people there! It will be good if the toilet can have some hooks.
- Angy (9/5): -
- Felicia (8/5): - This staff were awesome. I like seeing a cleaning person around the clock constantly cleaning.That was nice. The facility is outdated. The linen was ugly. It should have been white only.
- Jiangxue (9/5): - Excellent location and friendly staff. Free breakfast, free WiFi, spacious restrooms. The window in our room couldn’t be locked.
- Björn (8/5): Ett bra boende i helt rätt läge. - Läget och den trevliga personalen. Kaffet, modell smutsigt vatten… i Seattle? Bodde i överslaf, en utmaning att gå och lägga sig… ;D
- Denise (8/5): Overnight stay great - Excellent location tasty breakfast Nothing
- YONG (10/5): A wonderful staying at Green Tortoise Hostel and a wonderful trip in Seattle. - Very good location, which is the center of central area, easy to go many places on foot or by public transportation. Free breakfast, good facilities in the kitchen, nice staff.

- Kayoko (7/5): -
- Guillermo (10/5): -
- Arvind (10/5): Convenient, clean and comfortable - Great location: close to public transport and easy walking distance to all areas of interest in downtown Seattle
Great breakfast: Surprisingly good for a free hostel breakfast!
Comfortable bunk: well appointed with a fan, plug points, lights and a thick curtain for privacy
Convenient facilities: The common area is spacious enough to accommodate remote workers and travelers of all stripes. The bathrooms are spacious and appear to be cleaned very regularly The hostel is very busy, resulting in long wait times at the reception or a scramble for bathrooms during the morning peak. Not too big a deal, though
- schwager (10/5): - Ce ne vorrebbero tanti hostel di questo tipo in giro per il mondo. Bravi Farei l'ingresso dell'hostel con le scale più accogliente e una pulitina alle finestre non nuocerebbe.
- Wen-Hsiu (9/5): Perfect location - Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Comfortable beds. All good
- Enrico (8/5): -
- Jeremy (9/5): Perfect location, amazing staff - I've been to nearly 20 hostels now and this is by far the best welcome I've had at one by the staff at the front desk. The free beer was a nice added bonus. The private bathrooms are a huge plus and the beds were decently comfortable. Good social atmosphere. Room was grossly muggy/sweaty/warm and the fan in my bunk was quite loud. Place in general could use a little TLC but more than functional.
- Victor (8/5): My experience in Seattle - The stuff were really friendly. Good location to be in for the whole trip. Just be sure to go the hotel before its getting dark. I suggest 9pm to avoid any weird people on the street. The bed are comfortable, has a fan, and a place to charge your stuff. Breakfast was good. You could cook your own food since there a kitchen. A guy made some burgers 🤤And the vibe was chill. I would come here again It can be sketchy walk at night, when its getting dark outside. Staying at the hotel was safer while I was there😅
- Angelique (9/5): It was better than I imagined for being my first time in this type of accomodation. - Staff was super friendly and it had everything that I needed, I never even had to wait for a bathroom. Homeless all around but that is a city and state issue, not yours.
- Wen-Hsiu (9/5): Perfect location !! - Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Comfortable beds. All good
- Mao (9/5): ロケーション最高!!! - ロケーション抜群で、夜間も静かに過ごせました。
頻繁に水回りの清掃も入ってあるのでホステル&カプセルホテル慣れしてる人には問題なく過ごせる清潔度です。 シャワールームは男女共用なのでご注意ください。
- Alejandro (6/5): -
- Thomas (9/5): Great place to stay in downtown Seattle. - Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Comfortable beds. No complaints
- Tyler (6/5): -
- Emma (9/5): - Beds were comfy, everything was clean, checkin/out was easy I wish there were more hooks for the top bunk, breakfast was fine but nothing special
- Yongdong (10/5): -
- Markus (10/5): -
- Fernando (7/5): Una noche... - Está justo al lado del Market, está limpio y la cama que usé está comoda. El staff bastante bien, y el desayuno es aceptable. Buen ambiente, zonas comunes y wifi. Sería bueno poder elegir si queires cama de arriba o de abajo, y que exista una medida de asegurar que tienes locker asociado a tu cama. Además de que tienes que pagar por el champú para ducharte, por el candado del locker y por la toalla.
- QIAOYING XINJUE LI (9/5): 位置好,可惜墙壁很薄非常吵闹晚上根本睡不着 - 员工很友善,地理位置一流。可惜墙壁很薄非常吵闹晚上根本睡不着 墙壁很薄非常吵闹晚上根本睡不着

- Aidan (9/5): -
- Jasmine (8/5): Perfect! - Can't get a better location! Free ice cream and events every night. Friendly staff! Also BREAKFAST!!
- Eliška (5/5): - The free breakfast The location is not safe, you have to pay for towel, the blankets looked like it wasnt washed for a long time
- Estera (10/5): -
- dailei (9/5): -
- Petra (9/5): Worth it - Bathroom clean and location Pooh breakfast
- Tetyana (10/5): -
- Anni (7/5): Nice, decent hostel downtown - Very close to the Pike market and Downtown, a lot of bathrooms and breakfast included. There was the option for walking tours which would have been nice but this time it didn't fit my schedule this time. The beds were pretty old and not that comfy, but there was a good curtain for privacy. The 3rd ave nearby is not very pleasant at dark so maybe pick another route if arriving late. However, the hostel itself is on a nice location and felt safe.
- Chang (10/5): -
- Karen (10/5): Extremely fun. - Excellent location for finding cool stuff in Seattle.
- Jimpei (10/5): -
- teneale (7/5): Right in the city - Most of the staff were nice, some need to check themselves.
Breakfast was nice and simple.
Curtains on the beds
Bus stops are within 5 min walking mostly
Target is right next door The beds are not enclosed, meaning on the top bunk there is nothing to stop things falling through to the bottom bunk - the open slats under the mattress, no basic enclosure around the mattress. Yes there is handy pocket thing on the wall for your phone etc.
There wasn't many couches in the common area
The entrance stairs - everytime I came into the hostel, I met an overwhelmed traveller and ended up helping them carry their gear up the stairs to reception
- Marília (10/5): Staff is amazing, super well located, clean and comfortable accommodation. Definitely recommend -
- Jane (10/5): FUN - I was in an all women's 6-bed room. It was so quiet, I thought I was the only one. Little sink/mirror in the room, bathroom across the hall.
Great breakfast bar, really really great! Loved the experience, no negatives.
- Xin (10/5): -
- Wen Shin (9/5): -
- Sylvie (8/5): Satisfaite du service, de l’emplacement au centre des activités. - Acceuil, déjeuner, propreté. Beaucoup de bruits dehors toute la nuit. Difficile de dormir.
- Markus (9/5): - Great location, friendly staff and complimentary offerings like free coffee and hot chocolate
- Stiven (9/5): -
- Aleksandr (8/5): -

- Helena (8/5): -
- Olwethu (6/5): -
- YiAo (8/5): - 友善的员工 弹簧床睡着有点不舒服
- Adriana (10/5): Agradable y buen precio - Es muy central a todo caminando, puedes tomar un bus o el metro me pareció seguro y lo máximo que me quede en la noche fue como hasta las nueve de la noche entonces hasta ese momento todo muy bien. En el desayuno tienen la variedad de para que puedas comer. Además puedes repetir. También tienen la opción de que puedes usar la cocina y compras algo en el súper para que puedas preparar en ella. La verdad, todo me gustó
- Chloe (9/5): Excellent work all round! - Lovely, super helpful staff right in the heart of the city Might be wise to keep in mind that the area can be a little sketchy at night but otherwise, perfect!
- Larine (8/5): -
- Thomas (10/5): - Parfait si vous cherchez une auberge de jeunesse
- QIAOYING XINJUE LI (9/5): The location is good, but it's incredibly noisy. - great location The walls are so thin, I can't fall asleep at all.
- Mei-Mei (7/5): -
- Saulo (8/5): Great place to stay and affordable in downtown Seattle. - The location was perfect and the start were amazing, although the amount of homeless people around the area. I feel like having body wish should be the minimum like towels and toilet paper.
- Aleksandr (9/5): -
- Caterina (9/5): -
- Karmakar (9/5): -
- Lisa (6/5): - Location, cost and staff. Bathrooms.
- davide (9/5): -
- Dinah (8/5): - Felt safe and comfy and clean. Amazing location It was a great location but very expensive for a small bunk bed in a shared room.
- ORKUN (10/5): -
- Richard (4/5): -
- Jules (8/5): Lovely staff. Great kitchen and breakfasts. Good location. -
- Andrew (8/5): Well managed place with free coffee all day - Considering how big this hostel is, they do a great job. The free breakfast and coffee at all hours are awesome, luggage storage after checkout is helpful, friendly staff. Fans by the beds help drown out noise The amount of people staying here can feel overwhelming for a shared space, and feels less social almost, but I met some cool people
- Shari (10/5): -
- Mr.Famous (10/5): -
- Cameron (7/5): Nice place to visit! - There location was great! Close to the Alaskan highway and right next to Pike place market. Staff was a good vibe
- Jiashuo (9/5): -
- Florencia (9/5): -
- Yiding (8/5): 性价比极高,地点很好的Hostel! - 床单被罩整洁,卫生间经常打扫。
提供牛奶,麦片,水果和吐司(带花生酱和果酱)作早餐,且早餐时鸡蛋是免费的,住户可以自行烹饪。
储物柜就在床下,拿东西很方便。租一把锁5美金,走的时候可以把锁带走。如果不带走,会返还2美金。
地理位置极其方便!和Pike Market只有一街之隔,出门就可以进市场。坐车和散步都很方便。
(房间内不安静,比较吵,能听到街上的各种声音,但hostel会提供免费耳塞。) 希望能在淋浴间之外的区域有更多可以放东西的平台。
paper towel是棕色的,有一股怪味。
暖气太热了,夜晚睡觉必须开窗,甚至干热得会流鼻血。
有的窗户没有纱窗,白天开窗通风时有许多虫子飞进来。
公共区域比较乱,光线昏暗,空间也不是很大。

Free breakfast
Low price Nothing

- Megara (9/5): -
- Alfonso (10/5): -
- 차 (9/5): - 직원들이 매우친절했다!
- Chaeyeong (10/5): - 그냥 전체적으로 다 좋았던거 같아요. 구글맵 문제가 겹쳐서 들어가는 입구를 찾기 어려워 헤매긴했는데 직원이 너무 친절한거 보고 헤매며 쌓인 짜증이 풀렸어요. 매일 저녁에 이벤트 있는데 제가 간날은 아이스크림 무료 제공했어요! 개인 전등은 물론이고 선풍기도 있고 화장실도 샤워실+변기+세면대가 한방에 들어가 있고 한층에 3개씩있어요. 공용화장실 같은 느낌이 아니리 편하게 쓸 수 있어서 좋았어요. 유명 관광지 근처라 그런지 오전 5시부터 청소를 하는건지 모르겠지만 밖에서 큰 소음이 나요..방음이 나쁜편은 아니지만 잠귀가 밝으신 분들은 힘들거같아요
