    I spent an evening at this Rodeway Inn as part of a layover at Seattle. The stay was ample and did the job, but there is room for improvement. There is a shuttle service available to/from the airport to the motel. The shuttle can be initiated by calling the front desk. However, the shuttle hours are limited so it is a good idea to look at your flight arrival/departure times, and seek alternative airport transportation during the off hours. The Rodeway Inn is within walking distance to restaurants--dining options are available at nearby hotels, as well as a Denny's and 7-Eleven close by. Check-in was quick and the staff are friendly. There is a $100 deposit that was refunded within 48 hours of checking out. The property itself appears tired and jaded. There are no elevators at this property and the upper floors can only be accessible by stair. The room itself was quite jaded, with furnishings in real need of replacement. The carpets needed a good shampooing and a deep-cleaning would be a game-changer. There is a mini-fridge and microwave oven in the room. Additionally, there is a plasma TV in the room as well as reliable WiFi. The HVAC is functional but could use a filter change. Overall, my stay was to spend the night and catch an early flight, and this Rodeway Inn has helped me achieve that goal.

    The price is very competitive and the hotel is situated in a convenient location, close to a bus route, convenience stores and more. It was also quiet and my sleep was undisturbed. The rooms could use a microwave and I spotted at least one cockroach but not enough to ruin my stay here. I enjoyed myself. TV has many great channels and the AC keeps the room cool.

    This hotel deserves zero stars. One of the nastiest hotels I've ever stayed in. No room service, the WiFi never worked, the water barely gets hot, no microwave, front desk staff speak very little English, they add a $100 damage deposit (the whole hotel isn't even worth $100....) It smells bad. This hotel needs to be condemned. Also, I was told there was a "complimentary" cruise shuttle and when I went to book it they wanted to charge me $52. I was supposed to stay here after my cruise but we canceled and will be staying elsewhere.

    Not too shabby for the price. Came with a mini fridge and a tv. The furniture in our room was broken, but we didn't use it anyways. The hall always smelled like someone was cooking but it was strange since there wasn't appliances to cook with in the rooms.

    Close to the airport if you need a quick crash. Pricy for what you're getting, and the shuttle is only 7am-7pm, but it will work in a pinch. The room is nothing at all special, and you may need extra pillows as we did, but the front desk guy was nice and the room was clean.

    I was flying out the next morning early and decided to find a place I could sleep at , walking distance from the airport. This was non-refundable but was so gross to me I almost bailed anyway. Hair on the bathroom floor, what looked to be mildew on the top of the shower enclosure and a hand towel that was clearly left from the prior guests. I unwrapped the bar of soap and it felt wet. It appeared to be stuck back in a package to pass off as new soap. It was so gross. Never again!!!! I'd give zero stars if possible!

    Let me preface my review by saying that I am traveling to a different state every month. That said, the important criteria for me are: cleanliness, an approachable staff, and a quiet room. Based on my 4 day experience at this Seattle location, I give them 5 stars. Staff were so nice, helpfull, and professional. My room was clean & so comfortable. I require something substantial covering me and my bed came with a quilted, reversible bed cover. I was so happy about this as well for the comfortable mattress. Also in the room was a desk, comfy office chair, new & very effecient a/c and large openable window to hear the finches and see Pacific Northwest trees. The bath was spotless with a nice shower. To add a cherry or two over top, was free morn ing coffee, free airport shuttle, a 7/11 & Denny's in walking distance and the light rail that takes you right to the downtown area. Finally, was the price, $225 for 3 nights & received my $100 deposit back in 72 hours.

    No box spring.  Like a cot or a prison bed.  :(

    Beds were terribly uncomfortable. We checked out a day early. Cords to lamps were frayed and unusable. Room was dark. TV dated. The beds have no box spring and mattresses are thin and lumpy like a cot or prison bed. Would not recommend. Smoking rooms. That's about all for the positives.

    Well, I know that running a small business is tough but... Come on man. This place needs some upgrades. Yes, it is inexpensive but I can't give it a strong endorsement. The faucets barely worked in the sink and shower. The soaps were the cheapest little things I have ever seen in a hotel. The furniture is just really old. Even the continental breakast coffee tasted cheap. I hate to be petty. A guy on his own is fine here. But a picky spouse may not be happy at all here.

    One wonders what sort of violence occurred here.
    Brian N.

    Wow, what a dump. From the moment I walked into my room, I was underwhelmed and disappointed. First off, was the overall stink of the room, smelling of mildew and other unidentifiable aromas. I immediately opened the window in an attempt to air the place out. I was a bit surprised to see there was no bug screen, since Seattle has its share of mosquitoes. Nevertheless, I was willing to suffer some bites in order to breathe something other than the fetid air in that room. The room has a number of impromptu patches on the wall (see picture), making one wonder what sort of activities are normally engaged in while people stay here. My TV could not be turned on by the remote, nor could the light between the beds. One of the chairs had multiple cuts in it, but evidently the management still felt it was serviceable to continue using it. Lastly, a word about their shuttle service, such as it is. I arrived at 9:30 in the evening and when I called for the shuttle, I was informed it only runs from 7am to 7pm. Tack on another $17 for an Uber ride. The next morning, I went down ten minutes early to wait for the 9am shuttle. At 10 minutes after, I went inside to inquire about the shuttle and was told the next one would depart at 9:30. When asked about the "every 30 minutes shuttle", they finally agreed to give me a ride. Bottom line: if you can find a freeway underpass to sleep the night, you are probably better off than going to this dive.

The executive lounge was a bit small, but it offered a good selection of beverages. Breakfast was somewhat limited, though it included scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, breads, and fresh fruit.

The gym was well-equipped, and the lobby was spacious, modern, and inviting. What really stood out was the staff--they were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help.

The hotel itself is very nice, the rooms look great, and the location is super convenient if you're flying in or out of SEA. We also ate in the lounge area and really enjoyed the food. The crab cake, bao buns, and shrimp and salmon Cobb salad were all delicious and made for a great last meal in Seattle. Unfortunately, the biggest issue for us was the noise and extremely thin walls. We were in room 710, and we could clearly hear coughing and entire conversations from the room next door. There was also a random pinging noise every so often. It got to the point where we found ourselves whispering because we knew our neighbors could probably hear us just as clearly. That made it difficult to really relax and enjoy the room. We considered asking to move, but since it was later in the day and we were only staying one night before our flight home, we decided to stay put.

Staff seemed indifferent at best, and basic requests went unaddressed or were handled with a level of rudeness I wasn't expecting from a Hilton property. The shuttle service was the low point. It was scheduled to run every 20 minutes but was more like every 45, and drivers were consistently late and openly rude to guests easily the worst shuttle experience I've had at any hotel in Washington state. At one point, the driver left passengers stranded at the airport, forcing me to take an Uber to the hotel instead. When I arrived, I saw that same driver standing on the steps chatting with another driver no sense of urgency or care for the guests who'd been left waiting. I expect more from this brand, and this location fell far short. I wouldn't recommend staying here.
