Pros: The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. We needed directions to the UW Medical center and they got us there no problem. By the way, if you have to go to the Medical Center this is an ideal location, very easy to get to from the Watertown. The rooms are comfortably spacious and well appointed. Hardwood floors which is a nice change, since my husband and I both have allergies. There are windows in the room that open for fresh air. Drapes that cover all windows and provide a dark sleeping space, should you like that. The beds are very comfortable and the bedding is allergen free - no feathers! They provide parking at no additional charge.
Cons: There was a heating unit in the room that we could not get to turn off, so our rest was interrupted during the night. The coffee maker did not work. Not enough chairs in the room; There was a desk chair that was it. No schedule for the TV so could not figure out which channel was which. There is not an identified space in front of the hotel for temporary parking while you go check in.

Pros: Always a comfortable bed at StayPineapple. Large room for Seattle.
Cons: The tv was tiny for such a large room. 27-32” is just tiny these days.

10.0
Pros: They were great about letting me park in their garage before my room was ready. They held my luggage for me until I could get in the room. They called me- a real person called me to let me know my room was ready. They had free bicycles you could use. The beds in the rooms are to die for! The room was nice and roomy. They even have a brochure detailig all the restaraunts within walking distance. They thought of everything!!!
Cons: This was my first time in Seattle. Even though the hotel was excellent, I think I will try and get closer to the Space Needle area if I go back. (I should have done more research on the area I wanted to stay in- which is my fault) BUT it is a superb hotel and would be excellent if you are visiting someone at the University. There is nothing I can say that is negative about this hotel!
Good
7.6
Pros: Free parking, walk to any UW event....
Cons: They used to do interesting little things to enhance the experience. Now it is just a Hampton or a Courtyard with slightly better art. Also, they assign rooms based on how you made the reservation. My Kayak reservation got me a second floor room next to the elevator, with a view of the dumpster and a coupon for a discount if I booked directly next time. I've stayed in the hotel many many and made the reservation months in advance for a very special occasion. I was disappointed this time..

Pros: They offered a ten dollar credit for the snack bar instead of breakfast as a Covid precaution. The staff were all super nice and they didn’t have any problem with my dogs being there. They even gave them a bag of treats, dog bowls, a dog bed and water. My dogs loved running around, jumping in the bathtub, diving off the couch into the duvets. Very spoiled dogs.
Excellent
8.5
Pros: Surprisingly quiet Beds are incredibly comfortable- a great night's sleep Spacious room and bath/dressing area Robes and slippers Outstanding cafe with several good hot breakfast items
Cons: Confusing access/approach to hotel (no driveway and "no parking" signs in front). Should get a loading zone at minimum. There's a garage entry, but no signage telling you how to contact front desk or to check in. None would be a problem if you arrive without a rental car.

4.6
Pros: This was a good location for me. I liked the fact that they had balcony a (although we were locked in) and I liked the simple fun decor
Cons: We could not get the room cooled off even with air conditioner on high. Next to elevator which had a gruntled noise with every up/down traveler. No access to the balcony we had (one reason we secured here) we were actually locked in... I mentioned this to the attendant when we were up at 3am - uncomfortably so with heat and noise. They didn't offer anything other than an apology.

6.8
Pros: Front desk staff was pleasant and helpful. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Free shuttle to Westlake Center was convenient.
Cons: No free shuttle to/from airport. Had to use Shuttle Express at $19 per person per trip. Terribly slow elevator, and no way to enter stairwell from first floor except by going through the pool area (when it is unlocked). No ice machines, but pre-bagged ice frozen into solid clumps. No on-site laundry. Laundry at sister property Watertown one block away is inconvenient, as it is just a stacked W/D in a tiny closet with nowhere to sit nearby while you wait. When changing rooms, we accidentally left a few items of clothing in the wardrobe. We realized this a few hours later, but the items were gone and the room service staff claimed they had not seen them. I take this to mean they either disposed of them or stole them. No compensation was offered. I cannot recommend staying here.

8.3
Pros: Close to UW campus and University Ave which has a lot of restaurants and shops. About a 10 minute drive from downtown so it is away from all the down town traffic and early accessible by bus, light rail or taxi. Rooms were clean and well kept and the balcony off the rooms on the 4th floor were really nice even if the one I was in looked toward the parking lot.
Cons: The room was a bit smaller than I anticipated for a standard queen but then again I wasn't planning on doing much more than sleeping. I really have no complaints about this hotel.
Excellent
8.2
Pros: Walking distance to UW campus and the campus neighborhoods. A shuttle bus provides great access to other nearby locations, such as downtown. The staff was very helpful.
Cons: The wifi was very slow. Although the hotel has a pool, there is no fitness center on site; you need to walk a block to the sister hotel to use the fitness center. Parking is limited.
With a stay at College Inn Hotel in Seattle (University District), you'll be steps from University of Washington and 9 minutes by foot from Neptune Theater. Featured amenities include express check-out, luggage storage, and a library. Self parking (subject to charges) is available onsite.

Pros: It was so cozy and comfortable. My friend and I were here both for business and leisure, I had an interview and I extended it to explore Seattle. This location was perfect, right next to the school and off a fun street with many options for food. The hotel offered movies in the common area as well as coffee and hot chocolate at all times. The room had a lovely bench that overlooked the street and it was just perfect for what this trip was.
Cons: I did not know what european style meant before hand, so I was in for a surprise when I learned about the communal bathrooms. But the manager was really nice about explaining the situation and handled my confusion very well. Other than that, which was my own mistake for not knowing beforehand, we had no complaints. Lovely stay.

4.2
Pros: location was great. in the middle of the university of washington "u-district" adjacent to the school.
Cons: this is pretty much a hostel that charges hotel prices. bare bones room and shared bathroom out of an old film noir flick. so much was broken and in disrepair. chair broken, dresser drawer handle broken, shower head in shared bathroom broken, toilet paper dispenser broken. wifi didn't work and wasn't fixed. i would have been satisfied to pay $20 for hostel prices and then even $20 more for the location, but $136/night plus taxes was a ripoff. Staff was nice and apologetic, the convenience store, though also bare bones, was open 7a-1a.
Okay
5.1
Pros: The location is very good. Easy access to University of Washington, so it is good for students.
Cons: My friends stayed there fore more than 2 weeks. One of them stayed at a single room. It was located next to the stairs. Even at midnight whenever people use the stairs, there were big noises and he could not sleep a bit. The room was not clean enough even after house keeping service. That was a big problem.
Mediocre
2.0
Pros: Nothing
Cons: The staff and service was awful. We had to share towels because we never got how many we asked for and the front desk employee was incredible rude.

Pros: Nice rooms, very comfortable if a bit minimalist.
Cons: No fan in the bathroom means you get an impromptu sauna. Although it was lovely, you are definitely paying for the location.

7.4
Pros: Vintagey hotel. Nice little cozy sitting lounge; staff super helpful, accommodating and friendly; responded to minor requests quickly. If going to UWash is your mission, this is close to the university and probably better for you. The monorail is a few blocks' walk, so that's an option for able folks. It does have relatively easy freeway access for exploring greater Seattle from the north. Coffee shop below nice for morning coffee. Beds were comfortable and the place was reasonably quiet.
Cons: Our first night in Seattle, excited to see the city. For $300 ($721 for two nights total) we had no view from a smallish room. No hotel rooftop view, either. The surrounding neighborhood felt dicey--'yellow alert' safe with mostly people begging at the grocery store two blocks away. My teenage daughter and I walked around to find a resto and decided it felt safer to drive, because the whole neighborhood was run down (tho new dorm? construction everywhere) and several characters hanging en masse on the sidewalk a couple blocks over made us feel unsafe. Bad vibe. Not a good intro to Seattle. It's far from the downtown. Since you have to pay for parking at the hotel, it sucks to pay even more to park downtown. Other folks at hotel seemed happy to be there but I felt bad about choosing this one for our first two nights.

Pros: Free coffee at the cafe Room with a view on the 15th floor, spacious and comfortable Apples Morning paper available Elevators always prompt Cafe staff very helpful

Pros: We got upgraded to a suite, it was perfect for our family to stay overnight. We will definitely stay again next time we are in Seattle.
Cons: The staff member that checked us in told us we would be able to check in early around 3:00 p.m. and that we could wait in the lobby or they would call us on my cell phone as soon as the room was ready. We never received a call, so came back after dinner around 8:00 pm to pick up our key. Thank goodness we didn't wait in the lobby! The staff that was working when we returned was much more competent and friendly.
Excellent
8.5
Pros: Cute furniture; boutique hotel feel. Our room was a good size for Seattle and the front desk person got us to a higher floor so that we’d have a view of the space needle.
Cons: A bit noisy; valet parking was a bit much at $35 + tax, and especially considering the room cost was only $119
Excellent

Pros: Inherently attractive older hotel which needs some adjustment to be more user-friendly For instance, Bath supplies came in fixed containers that didn't work and there weren't outlets to plug things in. Staff were very warm and helpful.
