Traveller reviews

“Very good”
19 Jan 2025
The staff were really nice and towel was provided free of charge. Each bed had a little fan which was nice too.

“Good for a quick trip to Seattle”
06 Jan 2025
Perfect location to be able to walk into the city but also a stones throw from the train line that goes straight to the airport.

“Very good”

Location very close to the train station. Kitchen facilities were big and comfortable. Hostel was quiet.

Rather standard hostel, nothing special, some renovation is recommended. Other hostels have a bed box where guests have their own lamp, socket and curtain which gives them more privacy. On the other hand, the breakfast was really good.

“Superb”
04 Nov 2024
Very nice place! Comfortable beds, nice kitchen with all the equipment, rooms with TV, piano, guitar, snacks and beverages to buy. Free toasts with peanut butter and fruits for breakfast. I really recommend!

“The best alround place to stay in Seattle.”
03 Nov 2024
Helpful, friendly staff. Clean, good size dorms. Comfy bunks. Good common areas. Well equipped & large kitchen with good complimentry breakfast. Right next to China town, great asian restaurants all around. Easy walking distance to mainline railway station and city transport links both rail & bus. Excellent location. Good wifi. Totally reccommend.

“safe, clean, well maintained hostel with all the amenities in a very central location.”
28 Oct 2024
Overall, very well maintained. a bit pricier, but worth it because: - Location is fantastic in the heart of Chinatown, steps away from public transit (Union station, bus routes), and lots of options for food/groceries. - The kitchen is spacious, extremely clean, fully stocked with everything you need, and all appliances are in good condition. - Lots of communal spaces available to study, relax, socialize, or work in privacy. - Front desk is responsive, accommodating, and happy to loan out towels, extra blankets, ear plugs, locks etc. without additional charge if you need them.

“Great value and location. Spotlessly clean.”
19 Oct 2024
Great price for Seattle. I had the whole room to myself the first night and then only one other on the 2nd night. The cleaners were always busy. The bathrooms were spotless. They had modern washers and driers (pay per use but very reasonable). Excellent kitchen area.
