We only stayed for a quick overnight. The room was comfortable and clean, with a microwave and large refrigerator with freezer. The room does get a cross breeze with windows on both sides. But the traffic noise can be loud. If I had stayed longer, I would have checked out the Brooks Running trailhead, which is nearby.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities

They were in the process of refurnishing the rooms, which is nice. But even in a budget-priced motel, a working electrical outlet in the bathroom, standard-sized bath towels, a working ice machine, and functional TV reception (only a few channels worked), should be standard amenities. The location could work for those with a car, but there are no walkable services (dining, coffee houses or marketing/shopping) nearby.

Great for a one night affordable place to lay head. But unless you’re the type who has hot flashes, you might get quite the chill. Had no heat in my room. They were renovating, so I wasn’t too upset. Staff was very friendly & shower water was hot atleast.

Property was very cute. I loved it. Bed was comfortable. Room was more than I thought. Had a little living room area with tv, coffee table, couch and desk. Then separate bedroom with bathroom. Only stayed one night but if I’m back in Seattle I will definitely return.

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.
