My wife and I stayed in a room with a private bathroom, and we feel that this was a nice place to stay for two nights. (Note however that there's no room that is accessible without using stairs.) The room was rather simple but clean and comfortable. Hot coffee was available even in the evening in the common kitchen area. The location is very convenient for visiting UW, the surrounding area is vibrant but not too noisy, yummy food at reasonable prices in walking distance. There was one gotcha moment for us, we didn't have an unlock code to open the entrance door on arrival and there was nobody at the front desk. I searched for the code everywhere on my cellphone, but nothing. We quickly gave up, called the front desk number and a friendly staff came down to help, and that turned out to be the right thing to do. When we made a reservation we chose to pay on arrival, and the code was issued only after the staff scanned my credit card. If you experience something similar, just call.

Great location and cute room. Did not know it was a shared bathroom down the hall. However, bathroom facilities were super clean. Walls amd floors very thin so a bit noisy. Thankfully guests were quite respectful of eachother and not a big deal. Nice place overall

The collagen is clean and quiet with historical art on the walls. There is no elevator, but it’s an old historic building that has great charm.

They don't have someone at the front desk. Text them and they will come down and let you in, and set you up so you can enter on your own once you commit to staying. The place doesn't have any elevators so be aware of this if it's an issue.
