Worth every dollar spent!

While the location is a little suspect, the hotel property is secure, super clean and the staff/family who runs it are friendly, considerate and courteous! The bed was very comfortable, we had the king size bed room. For the money spent, it was superb! Plus, it was near the NW Hospital which was critical for our Seattle visit.

The motel is clean, attractive, safe, and quiet. It’s Shanghai in a “shady” area of town. The staff is super nice and helpful! The rooms are clean and well stocked with toilet paper and towels. The bed is comfortable. I recommend this motel to all!
