Very good location, but a bit dirty in the bathroom and too small a room.

It was awesome. the staff was kind, the price was cheap, bathrooms were clean, breakfast were free and even sometime dinner was free too. they provide plenty of tour information with the fliers and also have discount tickets for a museum and kayaking. power outlets were at each bedside, even if yours is at second story. they also had curtain at each bed so it gives you a perfet privacy, even though i stayed with other 5 people. it's a great idea. it was just great experience as a whole.

This place is amazing! Ill be staying here every time I visit Seattle now. The staff is friendly, and I love how everything is set up, nice comfy bunks, and the common areas are great for meeting other travellers. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! The only down side id have to say is parking, but thats not the hostels fault, Seattle just sucks in that department. So I'd say either fly or be prepared to pay for parking! Can't wait to go back. :)

Would be great if same-sex dormrooms are shown as an option on hostelworld.com as well.

Location was amazing, dinner for free 3 nights a week excellent though food in seattle is not too expensive anyways. Location couldn't be better, just by the pike market and the see shore. Rooms are tidy, everyone has their own box for stuff (remember the pad lock) and there's additional privacy made with curtains on each bed. Only real negative is that furthest rooms are too far from wifi but common room is big and had comfy sofas and tables so this wasn't really too bad..

Staff and Free Dinner was awesome!! The bottom of a bunk bed was OK but the top doesn\'t have any room. And in May could be OK but in summer must be suffer from too hot at the top.

You could not ask for a better location! Breakfast is excellent and the kitchen is really good. Beds all have own power points, curtains and big locker which is great. Wifi drops out a bit but u can alway go across the road to a really cool Starbucks and chill in their lounge :P

Great hostel, really friendly staff. Arrived as they were packing up the free dinner, put my bags in my room and came back down to find Nigel (desk staff) had prepared some of the dinner for me before it had been thrown out. Really good welcome and great stay!! Would love to go back.

The hostel is located perfectly in the center of the city. Our stay was nice, the only problems were our roommates who behaved really disturbing the whole night long and that our room was too far away from the lobby, so that we didn't have any wireless connection over there. However the staff was nice and the hostel is clean.

Far superior to the HI in Seattle, as it\'s a better hostel, better staff, better excursions and a better area

Great hostel, all the staff were awesome and everyone that was staying there were inviting and super friendly. Also made very interesting by the May Day protests that happened to be occurring at the time! Will definitely stay there again if I'm going back to Seattle!

Wonderful hostel, to stay anywhere else in the city would be a great tragedy on your trip. The hostel had an amazing food tour! It was in the heart of the city which made it very easy to walk to everything. This Hostel is a good example of what to look for in other hostels while you travel the USA.

Love the bathroom or restroom as you Americans like to say. What i think would be helpful from stays in other locations was a mop and bucket in the restroom. From a safety point of view, as the floors get slippery after showering, this small addition could be injury preventing and cost efficient. I loved my weekend at the hostel.
