The hotel is located outside Seattle downtown in an area with several other low budget hotel. Next to the hotel there is a 24 hours dinner and people in the parking lot at midnight that some may not feel comfortable.
I reserved two double beds. The room is small but adequately furnished. Luckily, the room was facing a quieter street (8th ave), it was not as noisy as the ones facing Denny Way. The internet was free, parking cost additionally $8, which I was not told when I checked in.
The hotel provides coninental breakfast, which is OK. At the time we stayed, the hotel was full, the breakfast room only had few tables, there was overflowing of people.
Both check in and check out took a lot of time. There was only one receptionist at the counter. When I checked out, the young lady was busy taking phone calls for new reservations and kept me waiting for about 10 minutes. When finally she hanged up the phone and printed out our room bill, there was a long distance call made at 5am in the morning which we never made. I explained to her that we were all sleeping at that time, this call could not be made by us. Also we all have cell phones, we don't make call on hotel phones. She would not listen to me. Finally she asked her manager, this took another 5 to 10 minutes. To the manager's credit, he took off the phone charge from our bill.
Overall, for the price we paid, the room was OK but small compared to other hotels we stayed in Seattle. The service is the worst I have seen among similar hotels.
