Compared to other reviews, I was disappointed
We stayed at the 6th Avenue Inn and based on the other reviews, I was expecting a bit more. The price was right for downtown Seattle, although I've seen several people say you can use one of the discount hotel finding sites and get a comparable rate for a nicer place. Our room was clean enough, although our windows needed a thorough cleaning/replacement and on one it looked like someone had spit on it. The bathroom was small and we thought it was cleaner than the room actually. Beds were comfy enough. We didn't experience much road noise, there was one group that came back around 1am or 2am that was noisy, but not much you can do about that. Overall it felt like an old property in need of some TLC, felt old to me, not quaint. I thought there was a bit of an odd odor to the entire place, but my wife and daughter seemed okay with everything. The location worked out great for us, within walking distance of the theatre, shopping and the Seattle Aquarium, all things we did. There was a Starbucks a couple of blocks away that we hit for breakfast. We were able to keep our car parked there all day the next day while we explored Seattle with no problems. The staff was helpful and provided us a map right away. A lot of people were at the breakfast at the restaurant. A small exercise room my son and I used, a bit outdated. The plus sides - you save money, there's parking available, close to lots of activities. The minuses outweigh the pluses for me, next time I visit Seattle, I'll try somewhere else, this was a one time experience for me. I must have missed what a lot of others seem to enjoy about this place.
