Graduate Seattle

It's a very well-decorated hotel with a reasonable price. The location is at the university district, and with an easy transportation to downtown. The district itself is quaint so I don't feel that I lost anything by not staying downtown. Quite honestly, this district is more interesting than downtown. Oh, one more good thing I remember: it offers free shuttle to downtown areas! so here's the list of the benefits of staying here: 1) the staff was extra nice; 2) the free shuttle from the hotel was convenient; 3) the buses to downtown from the hotel were very frequent; 4) the university district itself is a place to hang; 5) you could get a nice view of the area if you stay on a higher floor. so i am recommending this hotel, if you are thinking about where to stay in Seattle. good luck :)

The free shuttle was an awesome service provided.

Nice Ipod dock station/speakers, but I wish I'd had instructions for how to find a classical radio station on it.

Noisy ice machine I could hear from my bed, even with a sound machine on. (Room 403) I feel stupid that I paid $12 for parking next to the hotel at the front desk, when if I'd used the machine in the lot it would have cost $2 to park all night! You may say it's my own fault but I still feel a bit like you took advantage of me.

fitness facility is nearly non-existent!

Location was great and the quality of room for the price was excellent.

comfortable bed, view was great, staff was efficient

The District (the bar) is friendly and well managed. A very good place to meet or have a meal and a drink.

I liked the style of the rooms, the firendliness of the staff, the location.

Close to I5 and Woodland Zoo.

Not very sound proof. I was able to hear other guests passing by in the hallway, via my bathroom vent and adjoining bedroom door.

Cool place in the U-district, clean, beautiful view of Seattle to the south. Freee pass to a gym not-too-far away. Reasonably priced

The location

Felt like I have stayed in nicer rooms in a best western hotel for a third of the price I was charged here. We were there for a anniversary weekend and I was expecting much better based on the price I paid. We were also woke up by the maids loudly cleaning the room directly accross the hall at 7:30 on a Sunday morning.

Location and convenient parking

Rude staff, room phone did not work, requested a specific item due to disability and did not receive it, website makes rooms look bigger then they are, small bathroom with a filthy toilet. Horrible visit and will never stay again.

Staff were really friendly and helpful. Reasonably priced and a short cab ride away from a few great areas of Seattle.

I was under the impression I booked 2 rooms with 2 queen beds. However upon arrival they advised us according to the system I had booked 2 rooms with 1 king bed. They were able to change one room to 2 queens, however had no additional queen bed rooms available for our 2nd room. A bit of an inconvenience. Not sure where the misunderstanding took place on that one.

Rooms too noisy. You can hear people in the next room if your room has an joining door. Also you can hear people upstairs through the vents. I greatly value quietness and this was not the case
