While being a comfortable room, it could use some updating and paint. Bathroom especially.

I have stayed here several times in the past. The convenience for me is the hospital being right there. I can get a wheelchair to pick me up and take me to check in for surgery. The beds are comfortable and clean. My room was clean enough. The one thing that they need to do is update the carpets and furniture and paint. It is beginning to look rather worn and old. I will stay here again and recommend them to friends and others.

When i rechecked in to the hotel, the young lady, Bear, was so friendlier than the 1st lady who checked us in the 1st time I checked in. Very compassionate & understanding. What a difference.

It’s pretty much perfect for what it is. A sad say they exceed what I view the standards for a two star hotel to be.

Great choice if you are trying to keep downtown Seattle cheap(er). Facility is definitely showing it's age, but everything still works so if you aren't looking for fancy, this will do quite well.

Very convenient to Virginia Mason Hospital. Older property but very well maintained. Parking is very inconvenient and there is no dining facility on the property, which is also very inconvenient.

This property is in a more residential area but also right next to Virginia Mason Medical Center. This meant a lot of ambulance noises. Our room was comfortable but a bit dated and the bedding basic. The pillows were flat and unfluffable. However, since we spent little time in the room and the price was very reasonable, it made for an affordable stay within easy walking distance of the Convention center and Pike's market and the Capital district.

I reserved a room with two beds and it was given to my son who has the same last name but different first name. As a solution we were moved to a very small room with one bed for the same rate. We checked out three days before and the hotel was going to not charge for the remaining but they said Expedia should be reimbursing us because you are the billing agency. Unless you reimburse us, we really got screwed in this stay.

Toilet seat basically came completely off, the bathtub doesn't drain and I showered with water up to my ankles it took hours to empty. There's a horrible smell in the room and you aren't allowed to burn candles or anything to cover it. The only perk was nice staff and the location was necessary. I've seen nicer Motel 6 locations.

I was in Seattle for a family medical emergency and stayed the weekend at The Inn. It was recommended by Cherry Hill Campus Neuro Hospital to me, and it suited all of my needs for being in a safe, clean, and walkable distance to the hospital (1 mile). The staff was kind and very helpful.

Found front desk staff to be helpful and the room was clean and had plenty electrical outlets and a microwave and min-fridge, which were definitely appreciated. Room was quiet except for the constant low-hum of an air-circulating or heating unit (?) in the closet-bathroom area. The hotel is convenient to the downtown area but parking lot/garage situation nearby was not as pleasing.

Classic, but not classy
This is a very old hotel. The management has done a lot of improvements over recent years, but the rooms are still “old”. The mattress was nice. The bathroom is small, with no real room to lay things out, but clean. There’s an old side table that could serve as a desk, but no outlets to make it useful for using a computer there, and no lamp or chair. There is no thermostat and the heat seems to be from a centrally controlled system. It was a bit cool, but comfortable for sleep. It really like it’s trying to be a boutique vintage hotel, but having hard time finding a balance between just old, and antique but with modern comfort. The really sad thing, however, is that they used to have a really nice restaurant off the lobby that was a really nice breakfast place, with great food. Now, there’s nothing, as they never reopened on there after the COVID pandemic.

Very pleased with staff. I had interactions with 4 team members and each were very helpful and pleasant. Room was much smalled than shown in pictures but still nice. Bathroom was clean. Bed and pillows were very nice! My only complaint was how cold the room was. Staff did bring a heater but it was not enough to warm up the room. Even with this, i will return when coming to Seattle for medical care.

Hi Kimberly:You totally get us!! Our greatest amenity is the warm and caring team providing service at the front desk and keeping our rooms clean and ready for our guests. Our historic property has challenges when it comes to regulating temperature between rooms (think college dorm) but we embrace our value of creativity and work hard to ensure guests are comfortable. I wish we could've hit that issue out of the park. Nonetheless, we look forward to welcoming you back the next time you come our way.

Total dissappointment
That was the worst experience I ever had with a reservation. I made a reservation through you; Hotels.com, we arrived at that horrible hotel the night of the 29th not knowing that there was a mistake on the reservation that supposed to be for September 29 not the 30th. The counter clerk was a kid who told me about the mistake and told me that I should call Expedia because the reservation was made through them. first of all Expedia took a long time to answer and after that their answering machine never recognized the reservation. I explained to the hotel attendant what was happening and if he could’ve give us a room that night and he refused to do that, so, we ended un on the street with no solution to our problem and looking for another hotel to stay somewhere else. I am so disappointed that I will never use your services agin

Hi Evangelina:I'm disturbed to see your review and wish I knew sooner so I could do more to remedy the situation. No matter the details, it's clear our team needs a refresher on how best to take care of a guest who is booking through one of our partners. We will do better. Thank you for identifying an opportunity to improve.
