Worst experience ever
Posted May 22, 2017I expected "old world" style, and this was absolutely that. I can overlook the quaint, the limitations due to historical property, etc This place was terribly managed. On Sunday, we waited and extra half hour for the "exceptional breakfast". The door was locked and no one even arrived by 12 after. And even then, he said he wouldn't be ready for another 15 minutes. We were visiting from out of town and had places we wanted to see. Wasting an extra hour for breakfast we had to find somewhere else was terrible. And while waiting, another guest told us he got back to the hotel the night before and he no longer had his room. He had money and expensive clothes removed from his room and was gone. Worse, he was in a seminar that day, and was now unprepared. The rooms...bare and would be ok, but no thought used. There were minimal outlets, but only on the wall OPPOSITE the bed. So you can't charge your phone and use it for an alarm at the same time. There was an old alarm clock, but it wasn't plugged in, because it wasn't able to be near an outlet. The showers were down the hall, and robes provided. BUT NO BELTS on the robes. Highly advise against this place.

Stay somewhere else
Posted Apr 30, 2017I stayed here 5 nights.
The good: New beds.
The bad: Staff was rude, breakfast was never ready when they said it started. They just made the bed but didn't change the linens or replace the soap. No smoke detector, no cover on outlets, no AC, the phone didn't work, says there is staff on call 24 hours, but there isn't. No mini fridge or microwave in rooms. Parking sucks too.

Very convenient location
Posted Mar 30, 2017Nice location, very close by to university of Washington and many restaurants, unfortunately it was very noisy at night, a guest was talking loud, walking around the room , laughing, I complained to the front desk person, they did nothing, last night same thing. Unable to sleep.

Charming (funky) old hotel, very close to UW

Pros: Lots of small inexpensive places to eat nearby, as well as student theater around the corner.
Cons: Breakfast was included with good coffee, but food selection was pretty limited. Hard boiled eggs and better bread would be a good menu addition.
I had a small room with the essentials - single bed, sink, heat, internet, nice view. I could walk 8 minutes to UW, where I was working. Bathroom with shower down the hall was clean and not far away.
