The room was fairly clean. Great for a one night stay when travelling through. If the room had a fresh coat of paint, new pictures and curtains it would look much better. Beds really clean and smelt fine.

I flew into Seattle late at night and the staff helped me find the easiest way to the hotel from the airport without taking an Uber. The room was your basic cheap hotel but it was warm, dry and clean. The staff is above and beyond any hotel I’ve ever stayed at. If you’re looking for cheap and friendly this is your place!

The toilet was not securely bolted to the floor. It was too low, too. The sink leaked. The shower stall was dirty. There was a moldy smell in the room.

Clerk was very friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming when I checked in. Bed was very clean and comfortable. Microwave didn’t work and looked like it had been tossed over a cliff. Nice solo stay. Good enough for me and free safe parking.
