Editorial Review for University Inn – by Gayot.com

The Scene
This 102-room former motor hotel in the University District is one of the many relics left over from when the World's Fair came to town. Although it still looks like a motel from the outside, the inside tells a different story, beginning with the lobby, which feels more like a living room than simply the place to hand over your credit card.

The Details
The older, traditional rooms overlook the pool and still seem a bit like old motel rooms that have been spruced up for company. The newer, deluxe rooms give the hotel a more modern feel with funky windows that come to a point, lots of natural light and sitting areas with a table and two chairs. The inn also offers complimentary wireless Internet.

Ask for one of the south-facing balcony rooms above the pool; you'll think you're at a resort property.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Nice young staff, free wireless internet, pool, nice breakfast, free parking and comfortable rooms (with 27" tv) all for a good price. Update: we returned on July 2007. The hotel remains a great place. It's nice to know that the high standards are kept and that the hotel survives the test of time.

Pros: Inexpensive, Free Internet, Nice rooms

Cons: Far from downtown Seattle

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I first found the University Inn as mom of a UW freshman. The staff is friendly, and the location is wonderful. The continental breakfast is more than hearty, and the pool in the summer is fantastic. I would highly recommed this hotel to any parent visiting their students.

Pros: friendly staff, close to uw, great value
