The price was ridiculous for a room with no bathroom. The bathroom was down the hall and shared with strangers. No privacy. Very expensive to basically stay in a hostel with no elevator, no a/c, and NO BATHROOM.

This 1905 hotel is the oldest operating in Seattle, having been refurbished on the inside makes it worthy in itself.

I like the window seats, tv,and the location of the hotel. The fans were nice as well but a window unit or ac would be better. The hotel staff also won’t replace towels or tidy up the room and sheets unless you stay for a week at least. We had to ask for more towels at point. We also had to ask for a fridge in our room which wasn’t stated anywhere that I could find

The staff went above and beyond! I had 3 heavy suitcases and they helped me carry them up. I also dropped off bags in the morning before check in because I had to go to work so then when they assigned me to a room they moved my suitcases into it for me. Really appreciated this as my trip was to move into the city! Really friendly!

No bathrooms or showers in rooms- they are shared. No elevator - very limited parking. I had to park my car in a parking garage that was very expensive - after an 8 hour drive. Super annoying. No front desk staff 24/7 Annoying phone app for check in etc. I was not expecting this - booked thru Expedia and none of these issues were clear. I never would have stayed there if I'd known about them. Just one night so was able to tolerate it. Seems like a fancy hostel. Noisy at night - street noise and between rooms.

An AMAZING hotel! OMG especially for the price! Beautifully updated hotel, with pretty decor and great amenities (like the common lounge / kitchen on the top floor). Silky sheets and super comfortable beds. Very helpful staff (make sure to contact them if you are arriving late, b/c there is a key code if it is after 9pm). The location is so-so: the U District during the day feels fine, and there are so many options for dining and snacks, just so easy and convenient. The property sits right on the UWash campus. A quick walk from the train line that is a direct shot from/to SeaTac Airport. But, during the night, the area feels a little unsafe... It's a city, after all. But Ubers come rapidly when you call.

I had a WONDERFUL week long stay at the College Inn Hotel. The building is so full of character, and very clean. My room was very clean and comfortable, and I was even pleasantly surprised that I could log onto my streaming services. Everyday I had a ton of food options right on the same street, and the light rail and bus stops were very close. I loved exploring the undergrad campus from right across the street. The staff was basically always available if I had a question, and they were very kind and helpful!
