I was not sure just what to expect from this hotel. I had read great reviews and not so great reviews. I was not disappointed. The hotel was very clean throughout. Appeared to be new carpet, paint, etc. The hotel staff was excellent, the on site restaurant and lounge were very nice and the breakfast fantastic. Free WiFi that was excellent (wireless starting next week). Within walking distance of everything I wanted to see. I had no issue with street noise but I could see where this could be a problem as sound does seem to carry through the windows very easily. The hotel is only 5 stories so you are not very high above noise if it is there. Like I said it was not an issue for me. If you are on a budget or just want to save your money for the great food in the city I would highly recommend this hotel. All the old reviews I read regarding a worn out facility were no longer valid from my experience.

I have stayed at all of the "big hotels" in downtown Seattle over the past ten years, and a friend suggested the Sixth Avenue Inn as an alternative to the cookie cutter feel of work travel. I will be a returning customer to the Sixth Avenue Inn. From the moment of check-in it is clear that you are a guest of an extended family of hospitality staff who really care about how "their inn" takes care of you. The rooms are clean, comfortable and include micro waves/frigs large TV's, internet service and most rooms have great views of downtown and the space needle. There is a restaurant and bar on the second floor, and it features good home made food, great service, and a warm "small town" atmosphere in the middle of downtown. You are in walking distance to the water or uptown, and local free bus service is right around the block. Don't miss this gem.

Sixth Avenue Inn is a needle in a hay stack in the hotel world. Not only are their employees helpful and welcoming, the hotel itself is clean and comfortable. I have stayed at many hotels across Canada and the United States and Sixth Avenue Inn takes the cake for the best staff and overall best experience.

We stayed here for one night before our cruise to Alaska. We have never been to Seattle before and was surprised to see how expensive it was for a hotel room here. We saw the Sixth Ave inn on a website and liked the price. We decided to take a chance since it was for only one night. We were so pleasantly surprised! The hotel was old but very clean and the staff were so friendly and helpful!!! It was a great location also! We could the Space Needle from in front of the hotel and it was walking distance to Pike Place and lots of shopping places. The restaraunt was wonderful for dinner!! Best pot roast and they have a chicken and dumpling soup that is WONDERFUL! We will be staying here again for sure!
