great location, friendly staff, big rooms but if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs. Creaking floors, thumping feet, neighbours tv, running fans and the road noise ... Why don
T they have double glazing?
Very easy walk to most places including the conference centre and downtown.

My friends and I went to Seattle for the weekend and booked a cheap room through a website that ended up being at the Sixth Avenue Inn. The location of the hotel is great, we were originally going to stay somewhere near the space needle but were glad that we choose this location instead.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food and service at the bar/restaurant was great and the meals are value for money plus they do room service.

The room itself was clean and comfortable. It's not the newest or most upmarket hotel in town but it was a great base and place to sleep. I would recommend it to other travellers looking for good, cheap accommodation in Seattle.

My husband and I stayed her on an extended weekend trip in October. It was perfect for our needs. Walking distance to almost everywhere we wanted to go, and if it wasn't walking distance, then it was just a few minutes to 3rd ave where all of the buses ran. It was also across the street from an Airporter stop, so we were able to easily get to and from the airport. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We never once passed by the front desk on our way in without being greeted, or on our way out without a "have a nice day". And we were in and out a lot! The front desk staff was also very helpful with directions and recommendations on where to eat or sites to see. We didn't use the internet in our room, but we did use the computers in the lobby. It especially came in handy when it came time to print our boarding passes for our trip home. We knew we wouldn't spend much time at the hotel so we weren't looking to spend much money on one. But our time spent there was always pleasant. If you're looking for an inexpensive hotel walking distance to just about everything, we'd highly recommend this place. We're planning to return to Seattle next summer, and we'll definitely be staying at Sixth Avenue Inn again.

Oh one more thing. I remember reading negative reviews here first complaining about the strip club across the street. But decided to take a chance and stay here anyway. Our room faced the club and my husband didn't even realize it was there until I pointed it out on our last night. There was no loud noise and with our curtains closed there was no problem with the neon signs. And the club is actually on the back side of the hotel, not in front, so you'd never even have to walk passed the place. And the area was NOT "shady". In face, there was a very upscale restaurant across the other street (can't remember the name right now) with Lambos and Ferraris parked out front. Not your typical "shady neighborhood" vehicle. I'm from the southside of Chicago. I know shady when I see shady, and this area was not shady. So don't let the proximity to the club discourage you. It really was not an issue AT ALL.

with a military discount (they also have AAA discounts), a double was less than $60 with tax. Parking fee was explained and signed for at check in, so no surprises there. the room has a minifridge and microwave, and wireless was easiy accessed. it did go out once, but we just called the front desk and it was reset within 15 minutes. there was no need to drive anywhere, but we like walking. front desk was helpful with directions and finding a grocery store. we had view of little darlings strip club from our room, but it was interesting people watching and i never felt unsafe. i would come back to the hotel again.
