Great location for campus visits at University of Washington. However, there are no onsite restaurants, although breakfast is provided for a fee. Staff is courteous and friendly, but appears to be at the front desk during limited hours only.

This hotel is located on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis. It’s perfect for families for college visit. We were surprise to find out that free breakfast is also included. Breakfast is simple: coffee, bread, pastries, fresh fruits and yogurt.

Clean, comfortable, and quiet!

Clean, comfortable, and quiet! Excellent value. On campus so there is not much nearby. Still, if you have a car it works well. Would definitely return.

Nice stay

Very nice stay. Very quiet and clean. Excellent service. Nice shower. Easy parking. 5 stars. A few minor annoyances. There's no sign showing where to enter. Me and a couple of other guests went in the wrong door and were lost. The shower handle was very loose. Parking should be free since the hotel isn't downtown. Overall, excellent stay!

Great place

Our son plays football for Wash U and this is a great place to stay right on campus. Free parking on the weekend and the service and rooms are top notch. Close to anything you would want to go to. Can tailgate and then just walk to the hotel.
