The rooms were clean, and with privacy curtains for each bed - very nice touch. The staff was friendly and helpful, and they had lots of activities going. The location was central to everything I was doing in Seattle, I will be back when coming to Seattle.

The hostel had a community feeling. Everything was clean and comfortable. Only downside is several roommates leaving early and interrupting sleep. Friendly staff.

You wasn't really too far from much of anything you could walk down to Pike Street. The pier wasn't too far either from there a bunch of different little shopping areas. A Target really close by. If you're a Target person and there's a little souvenir shop on the corner that has good deals

Very new experience.

Never stayed in a hostel before so this was a whole new experience. Every single staff member I encountered was more than accomodating and went above and beyond. Was different sharing a room with others however if you are just needing a simple nights sleep for a reasonable cost. This is your place.
