The rooms are small, but they are clean and modern. it kind of reminds me of staying in a micro hotel over in Asia. When you think about it, all you really need is a bed, bathroom, and shower. Perfect for a short stay

Great location and the staff is lovely! There’s no elevator though (except a service elevator staff can let you use during business hours), so if you plan to stay out late and can’t do stairs, keep that in mind. The rooms are also a bit of a wild setup, with the shower literally in the doorway, but that was honestly kind of hilarious so I’m not even mad. Honestly, great value for the money.

Easy to find and get in, the location was perfect. The only complaint is you had to lift the door to get it to lock/ shut properly. Fine for 1 night in Seattle.

The hotel was in a shady area, but close to the hospital. The room was very small, but had everything you needed. I would recommend a short stay. My only real complaint was we are senior citizens, and they put us on the 5th floor, and there is no elevator. They did ask if we wanted help with the luggage, but still I think they could had offered us a room on a lower level.

A pretty nice place, really. The room was very clean with a modern decor. There's plenty of storage and a custom AC unit separate from the main thermostat. The bed was pretty comfy. I slept like a rock. The neighborhood is decent. There's a college and a baseball diamond just down the street. There's places to get refreshments etc The staff was very friendly and helpful.
