We had a lovely time in this hotel. Nice big room, free parking, free WIFI, free very good breakfast. probably the best hotel breakfast we had on our whole trip. Yoghurt and fresh fruit; my favorites! And the free shuttle into the city is a bonus! You can leave your car behind at the hotel, no worries. More

We stayed here for two nights. They volunteered a complimentary upgrade to a nicer room even with our discounted AAA rate. We found the staff very friendly, the continental breakfast was adequate for our needs - well stocked and clean. We found the atmosphere very nice. More

Colleagues arranged a stay for us at this pleasant hotel, close to the University of Washington. The room was large and comfortable. We had a number of contacts with hotel staff; each one was courteous and efficient. The continental breakfast was better than most, actually having protein (hard boiled eggs and yogurt) as well as coffee, tea, cereal, bagels, pastries... More

Located in the Queen Anne area, the University Inn provided us a great base location as we explored the area. Excellent customer service, comfy beds, pleasant and knowledgeable courtesy shuttle drivers and free parking. Standard continental breakfast which worked just fine for us. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate available in the lobby at night. Overall, a very pleasant experience. The... More

Stayed 3 days with 3rd night free and got a free upgrade too which was very nice. Room was fantastic - little touches like free water each day. Don't know if I would pay for refrigerator in room as didn't use it much - only for toddlers milk and would be cheaper to buy carton each day. Breakfast was reasonable.... More

I found University Inn by chance. I was driving cross country and ended in Seattle for a cup of coffee because at that time, both me and my girlfriend had no idea what Seattle had to offer. With no expectations of the area, we were greeted by sunny weather and beautiful scenery as we drove into Seattle through I-90. We... More

This hotel is located close to University Street in the University District. Grounds aren't anything to look at and the pool is very small, but it is clean, friendly and quiet! The rooms are pretty spacious and the staff are very friendly. The location was perfect! Parking was ok, well lit area and safe. They allow pets. Beds are comfy... More

I booked this hotel because of a promotion for the third night free, but when I arrived, they said I couldn't use that promotion. We ended up splitting the difference for the third night, but I still feel the promotion was disingenuous. As far as the room, it was average with no problems. Breakfast got quite monotonous day after day.... More

We've stayed here multiple times when visiting family in Seattle. This is predictably a pleasant stay; clean rooms, friendly service, free breakfast and wifi. Only con's are the street noise (although location is convenient,) and it can be a bit pricy, although good for Seattle. More
