“Great value and close to airport”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 July 2011
3
people found this review helpful

We only stayed one night here but felt it was excellent value and the reception staff were great. They let us leave our bags for a day in the staff room while we visited Seattle. Rooms were clean, water extremely hot and we had a nice room next to a little garden. It was close enough to walk from the airport but we didn't know the way so we took a taxi for less than $10 including tip. As another reviewer mentioned, there is a very nice Denny's nearby (ask at reception for 20% discount coupon). Actually Denny's is about halfway to the airport so when we were leaving we walked about 10 minutes to Dennys for dinner, then about another 10 minutes to the airport. The hotel is midway between two train stops, around 15 minutes walk to Tukwila station from which you can take a very pleasant train ride into the city centre. If we were in Seattle again I'd probably look for another place even closer to the airport as there seems to be plenty of options and the airport is also a train line terminal, so easy to go to the city. But if you have a car, this hotel would be ideal.

Room Tip: Ask for one near the garden

“Good value for money, but too out of town.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 May 2011

My Sister & I travelled America for a month and really needed to save some cash on hotels for petrol & food, so out of the 18 places we visited we stayed at 13 Motel 6's.
Firstly, the hotel is so easy to find - we did most of our trip using simple Google map directions and the location of this Motel 6 is ideal.
The hotel is located 3 minutes from Seattle TAC Airport, we arrived at 8pm after a long 14 hour journey (one stop off) from London Heathrow, so we were tired and suffering with the 8 hour time difference.

The hotel on arrival was average, a large car park and a motel looking exterior - whilst checking in I found the receptionist on the desk to be a little rude but being so exhausted and American/English service being different - I would only put this down to cultural difference rather than actual rudeness.

The room itself is very basic but clean, do not expect any cooking facilities or a kettle. Motel 6 is very basic, coffee is served until 10:30am from reception but that is it. They're vending machines and the such in the motel service room with a can of coke being roughly $1.

Our bathroom was a little dirty, a floor mat was hung over the bathroom door which appeared to be dripping a brown substance from it - which was still damp.

Having stayed in so many Motel 6's in the last month whilst travelling America, almost all Motel 6's are the same and Seattle wasn't at all different from many of the places we stayed however the Motel itself could do with a little updating, yet if you're on a cheap budget and only plan to sleep in the room whilst visiting - I recommend this hotel.

It's location to the airport is ideal but you must have a hire vehicle if you plan on visiting downtown or anywhere other than the small sparce strip the Motel is located on.

Also, I'd advise you to not park anywhere near the hotel entrance or exits - our hire vehicle was hit from behind during a hit and run incident during the evening, although the reception area is manned 24 hours and most Motel 6's have security on site, our vehicle was parked by a very large floor to roof window in front of the reception area yet police were not informed until the morning hours when my Sister & I actually saw the damage and shunted vehicle.
I gather reception staff will not take any responsibility for accidents or incidents and inform the police although reports of the accident were told to the staff from other hotel guests and the incident itself was apparently extremely loud.
CCTV does not watch the carpark, only the office.

Room Tip: Ask for top floor, ceilings very thin.

“Absolutley Cleanest Rooms In Seattle”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2011

people found this review helpful

Originally I came to seattle on business and stayed at the La Hacienda because of location.Their rooms where 70 a night which was okay but all the rooms havent been remodeled and we stayed in one that smelled of cig smoke really bad. So bad that it stained every article of clothing in my suitcase. I am a smoker and it really bothered me. Decided to try another hotel a wee bit further out in hopes of better conditions so I decided to try this place out. I was very skeptical considering they only charged 50 BUCKS for 2 people. I Paid for only 1 night at first to see how it was. Wow.....was i impressed. While this is a no frills hotel, all rooms have been remodeled tastfully and where REALLY CLEAN.I actually tried to find dirt and found none. It was very quiet(at least on the back side-upperfloor), and I felt totally safe. The staff where cordial enough and tended to my needs.If you are on a budget or if you just want a CLEAN and quiet place for a few nights, this is the place. I HEARD NO AIRPLANES! W00T :) Beds are new also. Pillows kick butt

“Good Motel 6, reasonable, close to Seattle airport”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2010

'Very pleased with this Motel 6. Nightly rates were under $50.00, close to highway, felt safe, professional staff, one mile from rental car business which have shuttles to and from airport. Easy drive to downtown. Close to many restaurants. This made my 2 week stay in WA cheaper and less of a hassle than I expected. Rental car (Enterprise airport off-site) was half the price of renting the same car at the airport and they have shuttles running constantly.

Stayed September 2010, travelled as a couple

stayed here one night to have access to the airport- was a short drive to return the rental car. everything was fine- clean room, quiet (i had requested a quiet upstairs room in the rear not facing traffic), easy check-in. the interior halls can be noisy but it wasn't problem with my stay. they advertise expanded cable but there were only the usual 20 channels. overall, it was a typical motel6 and good value.
