Great fun place to stay. Right in the center of Seattle. Now, to be aware that Seattle does have a lot of homeless. And there are fewer outside of the center. But the center is more fun and interesting I think. The hostel itself has tons of sociable travellers to chat with, and lots of events. The kitchen has plenty of powerful gas stoves, a powerful microwave, toaster, tons of pots, plates, cutlery. Decent sized fridges, with enough space. Big common area.
