The rooms are small, but they are clean and modern. it kind of reminds me of staying in a micro hotel over in Asia. When you think about it, all you really need is a bed, bathroom, and shower. Perfect for a short stay

Great location and the staff is lovely! There’s no elevator though (except a service elevator staff can let you use during business hours), so if you plan to stay out late and can’t do stairs, keep that in mind. The rooms are also a bit of a wild setup, with the shower literally in the doorway, but that was honestly kind of hilarious so I’m not even mad. Honestly, great value for the money.

A pretty nice place, really. The room was very clean with a modern decor. There's plenty of storage and a custom AC unit separate from the main thermostat. The bed was pretty comfy. I slept like a rock. The neighborhood is decent. There's a college and a baseball diamond just down the street. There's places to get refreshments etc The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The location and value were exactly what I was looking for, entirely pleased. The top floor does sway a bit, but the noise level was very low overall, and the stairs have halfway-point landings so they aren't too bad even going all the way up. I don't think I saw any vending machines or ice etc. Which you may be anticipating, so a heads up there.

The hotel is hard to find, because in the front there is another name, in very little letters you can read the Boylston CH Hotel, parking is difficult unless you pay, but is very well center if you want to use public transportation. What is was more uncomfortable for us was to have the shower in the middle of the room, with very little privacy. It was a very small room, we can call it minimalist. On an excellent note, great bed and super clean.

We had such a great stay at this hotel! The location was incredibly convenient—everything we wanted to see and do was within easy reach, which made our trip so much more enjoyable. The room itself was very clean and well-kept. While it was on the smaller side, it was honestly perfect for my friend and me and had everything we needed. The amenities really stood out, especially the cute lounge area—it was a nice spot to relax after a long day out. We also appreciated the thoughtful touch of providing earplugs, which definitely came in handy since Seattle can get pretty loud, especially on weekends in busy areas. What made the experience even better was the staff. Everyone we interacted with was super friendly and welcoming, always greeting us when we came and went. Overall, it was a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay—I would absolutely recommend it!
