Fun vibes, great area

Yeti Hut has lots of fun decor and thoughtful details including an area just for kids. The beds were way more comfortable than many places we've stayed. The area is great: reasonably quiet, close to major highways and within walking distance to shops and restaurants. A terrific bagel shop is just two doors down. If we're ever in Seattle again, we hope to stay here.

Seattle Cuban Dance Festival 2024 weekend

This property was perfect for our visit as it was within walking distance of workshops on the UW campus, and a short ride to evening events. It was bright, clean, great amenities, air conditioned, and everyone said the bedding was amazingly comfortable. Would totally book again.

Clean property in a great location

We loved the Yeti Hut! It was clean and very organized. Kitchen had everything we needed for our long weekend. The double shower setup in the lower level bathroom was very clever and convenient. Bri was very quick to reply to messages and answer questions. Check out was very easy. Will look to stay here again when we come back to UW!
