Tiny Rooms, Unclean, Unsafe, slow Wi-Fi

I didn't want to walk in my barefeet on the carpeted floor. The bathrooms were tiny (I hit my knees on the opposite wall when I sat on the toilet, and I'm 5'3") as were the bedrooms. Wireless internet was slow. There was no elevator in the loby so I had to lug my suitcase up or down a set of stairs to get to an elevator. The night front desk person didn't smile and was unfriendly/unhelpful. I could hear everything from neighbors through the paper-thin walls. The only positive was the location - close to Pike Place. The bed was fairly comfortable, too.

This hotel had a good location in Seattle. However, the bathroom was very small and the parking was offsite, inconvenient and very costly. The hotel was old (estimated age 80 to 100 years) and not well maintained in my opinion. I would not stay there again. No particular amenities were noted.
Excellent location, terrible rooms

This hotel is an excellent location close to everything - walking to Pike Market, Monorail, library, shops, and the most incredible restaurants. However, the hotel room was terrible. The hallway near our room had a terrible musty odor, and rooms are extremely small - even for two people! The closet also had the same musty, moldy odor. Shower was terrible and did not dtrain properly, we found ourselves in almost 1 to 2 feet of water while taking showers daily. The walls are EXTREMELY thin and you hear everything. Also, you can hear alot of noise and traffic from the streets; I had to go buy some earplugs at the nearby Rite Aid 4 blocks down. I had to iron some clothes and found the iron did not get hot enough. This is a terrible, terrible, hotel and the only great thing is the location.
However, the front desk and other staff are very friendly and nice. Also, there is a small computer in the business area to check emails. Or you can go across the street to the library and also use free service. This hotel is good for a one night, brief business stay. The rooms are very, very, basic with no microwave or refrigerators or daily newspapers. I definitely would NOT stay at this place again.
Good location--terrible room

The downtown location (across from the must-visit Seattle Central Library) was great. The room, however, was another matter: small with practically no amenities--no microwave, no ethernet; old features. They did look after my bags while I went sightseeing the next day. I would never stay there again.
Great place...more than I expected

I've stayed in other 3 o 4 star hotels and this really exceeded my expectations, specially with the great price.
Rooms are really small but nothing unbearable and they are decorated with great taste so that makes them really cozy. Beds are amazing, great quality. Location worked great for me as I was visiting for the first time Seattle and from here I could get to lots of good places walking and you have the public free bus stopping at the hotel's door. People on the front desk were always of great help and were really nice to us, if i go back to Seattle I would definitively stay there again. I trully recomend the Japanese restaurant next door.
