I have been staying at Sixth Avenue Inn every month for 2+ years. I am an
"older" graduate student at Antioch University, and this has been my home when
in Seattle. The Belltown location is fantastic lots of great restaurants, 5
blocks to Whole Foods, easy walking distance to Pike Place Market and the
waterfront, Downtown, Seattle Center and the Space Needle, and a transit hub at
Westlake to get anywhere in the city you need to go. But the most important
quality is the staff I cannot praise them highly enough! From my first stay
there, everyone has gone out of their way to make sure I have everything I need.
From the front desk, to the restaurant, to maintenance and housekeeping, to
management, they provide 5-star (maybe 6-star) service better than I often get
in so-called luxury hotels (I travel a lot on business). If you want a modest,
spotlessly clean, well-located city location for your Seattle stay, with a
welcome that makes you know that they are TRULY glad you are there, check out
the Sixth Avenue Inn!

For price versus value I don't think you can find a better deal. Very friendly
staff. I've stayed there three times. Twice I was on the back side of the hotel
and the room was a little larger with a tub in the bathroom. Once I stayed on
the front side and the room was a little smaller with only a shower. Still, it
was fine. They didn't charge me to use the in-room safe. Great location. It's
only a few blocks from Westlake Center so you can take the Link Light Rain from
the airport (just $2.75) and walk to the hotel. You can also catch the Monorail
at Westlake Center to go to the Seattle Center and Space Needle. Reasonable
walking distance to Pike Place Market. The hotel charges for parking but you can
park on the street for free after 6:00 p.m. Also, Enterprise has a rental car
office a few blocks away. You can pick up your car the morning after a stay in
the hotel or drop it off the night before a stay in the hotel and avoid the
parking charge. The restaurant and lounge are also nice. I never eat at
McDonald's, but if you like that, it's only a block away.

Helpful and friendly staff. Nice and comfortable room ( I stayed alone in a king
size bed room ). Love the fact they are a green hotel!!! Excellent location.
Free Wifi that actually works pretty good, coffee maker inside the room.
I got an early check in which was amazing, after a long trip from Taipei.
I definitely recommend this hotel if you are visiting Seattle.

For a three star hotel, this is the best you will find. The beds aren't great,
but the rooms are very clean and the hotel is in a good location downtown. The
best part of this hotel is the customer service. Everyone there is very friendly
and helpful. There are friendlier and more helpful then some of the Sheratons
and Marriots I have stayed at.
The one criticism I have is the shower had very low water pressure. Otherwise, I
would stay here again if I need a good, cheap place to stay.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Kudos to the housekeeping staff.
Housekeeping was very responsive. The room was comfortable, however, the shower
needed renovation. The opening was so warped because of moisture that it was
hard to close the door. There was black stain all around the bottom half of the
shower door. There was a mildew smell that permeated the entire room that seem
to come from the bathroom. A suggestion - have the housekeeping staff check that
the lamps in the room are in working order as well as the electrical outlet in
the bathroom before each check-in.
This hotel is about six blocks from the convention center and about ten blocks
from the waterfront. Close to public transportation. |
