Appreciate the calm atmosphere at Gay City Library while perusing the journals, books and periodicals. See if you can find some board games too.

Located in Downtown Seattle, this collection of books is worth a look. But you'll find a great deal more to explore in the area. Space Needle, Pike Place Market, and University of Washington are within easy reach of Gay City Library.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (2,498 reviews)

Hotel is nice & clean; staff friendly & knowledgeable. Location is central and close to Pike Place, Seattle Center, and several museums are within walkable/reasonable distance. Room was nice. My only two issues were: Nit-picking, but the pillows were flat. The second issue (bigger) was the $20/day "destination fee". I have no idea what it is or why it's charged. Just be aware it exists. Otherwise, I had a fine stay.
