Inn at Queen Anne

02/26/2008 Posted by prkygth

Before you make reservations please appreciate the fact that this a converted 1930's apartment building- and that there are no elevators or ice machines. Now that we are past that- the room, the ambiance, the front lobby staff and cleaning crew(down to the wonderful maintenance gentleman that carried all of our luggage up to our rooms on the 2nd floor)every thing was beyond amazing- Not to mention the free internet service, cheap parking was a godsend- and the fabulous gourmet market just up the street was perfect with the cute little kitchenette. The landscaping was a welcome surprise coming from a recent snowstorm in Idaho- the little soaps and shampoos smelled wonderful every day. The bed was absolutely comfortable and inviting after late night outings with our friends; as was the deep tub- better than the one we have at home. We will definitely be choosing the Inn at Queen Anne for our next trip back to Seattle- it is so close to every thing that we come to town to see and do- and we loved the fact that the closet is bigger than the one we have here at home!

Pros: Free Internet, Close to Seattle Center and Downtown, Nearby markets and restaurants

Cons: Not enough electrical outlets, no ice machine,

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! THE SERVICE IS BAD, THEY PROMISE THINGS AND DO NOT DO THEM. THEY TELL YOU THAT YOU WILL GET ON ROOM AND YOU GET NOTHING LIKE IT. THERE IS NO SCREENS ON THE WINDOWS. IF YOU ON THE FIRST FLOOR DO NOT OPEN THE WINDOWS. BETWEEN HOMELESS HANGING OUT AND THE LOUD STREETS ALL NIGHT. THE LOCKS TO THE ROOMS DID NOT LOCK. THE SHUTTLE BUS (WHAT A LAUGH) WOULD DROP OFF BUT NOT PICK UP. IT WAS MORE TO THE DRIVERS CONVIENCE THEN THE COUSTOMER. THE EMPLOYEES THAT MY FAMILY DELT WITH DURING THE DAY WERE RUDE, BUT THE ONES WORKING AT NIGHT WERE GOOD. THE FRONT DESK CLOSES AT 11PM. SO IF YOU NEED SOMETHING THEY WILL NOT BE THERE TO HELP. MY SUGGESTION SPEND A LITTLE EXTRA MONEY ELSEWHERE. IT WILL BE WORTH IT AT ALL COSTS!!!

Pros: they would try to fix their screw ups if they were able to.

Cons: They did not do what they said they would

THIS IS A DEFINITE RANT. DO NOT, WHATEVER THE SITUATION MAY BE, BOOK A ROOM AT THIS HOTEL. THE ROOMS SMELL, THEY'RE DIRTY AND THE STAFF IS COMPLETELY UNHELPFUL. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING REDEEEMING THAT I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS HOTEL. I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED OUT UPON CHECKING IN AND WAS NOT OFFERED AN APOLOGY BUT RATHER REMINDED THAT IT WAS A 2 STAR HOTEL - A FACT THAT IS NOT STATED ON THEIR WEBSITE. UPON ASKING FOR MY MONEY BACK I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO SPEAK WITH THE GENERAL MANAGERS. CURRENTLY, AFTER FOUR ATTEMPTS IN THE LAST 2 DAYS I'VE NOT RECEIVED EVEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT!!!! THE WEBSITE IS TOTALLY MISLEADING. THE ROOMS DO NOT LOOK THAT WAY. WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT STAY AT THIS AWFUL, SMELLY, DIRTY HOTEL.

Pros: THERE ARE NONE

Cons: I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY TO LIST THE CONS

I was happy to see the Inn is so conveniently located and yet it is a very nice place to stay. The rooms and the property are simple and it is refreshing. There may have been some rennovations in the past but my room was very nice. Rm. 202 overlooks the needle and First Ave, with small kitchenette that I never used because of the numerous nearby restaurants. You can get stuff to cook if you want as there is a grocery store across the street from the entrance. It is easy to get around using the bus system with stops across the street depending on your direction. It was rainy when I was there but did find some breaks to try out the Hotel courtyard. It is worth a try to stay here.

Pros: Location, Transportation easy, Price

Cons: , Street folk in area

Staff extremely helpful and knowledgeble, rooms a bit small but clean and comfortable. Great location. Free shuttle drops you off anywhere in the downtown area and will pick you up again. Our driver Carlos was friendly and courteous. We highly recommend the Inn.

Pros: friendly staff, great location, free shuttle

My wife and I had only a few days in Seattle and had decided to stay a little out of the city grind. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was dellicous. I was surprised by some of these other comments, as we found everything to be in perfect working order. The location is perfect for about everythin we wanted to do; go to the Space Needle, see the Experiance Music Project, and so forth. In short, I have nothing but praise for the Inn at Queen Anne. It was truly a weekend to remember.

Pros: Inexpensive, Helpful, Location

The redeeming thing about this place is that it is located close to the Seattle Center. The people are courteous Other than that, the beds are uncomfortable, the rooms very cramped, the bathroom even more so, and it is not what I would consider even basic reasonable comfortable accomodation. Disappointing!

My husband and I stayed there back in October of 2000. We were very disgusted. The rooms were very small, our carpet was soiled and so was our bed sheet. When we asked for a clean one, they gave us one that was crumpled up . It wasn't even folded and that had stains on it also. We had to make the bed ourselves. Their breakfast is a total joke. It consist of couple of cold muffins, a loaf of bread that you toast yourself,some dried up fruit and this is if get up early enough. The staff wasn't friendly and when we complained about the condition of our room, their excuse was that it was under re-modeling. The only thing they have going for them isthe location otherwise it should be shut down by the health department.

Pros: Location, Location, Location

Cons: Filthy, Poor Service, Very Small Rooms
