Back to Hotel Deca Seattle Let the hotel guest beware. Picked this place because it was close to my home. Needed a place to beat the heat. This wasn't it. First, if you book through a hotel discount site, the room you will be getting is SMALL. I am not exaggerating. There was barely enough room for a single full bed which was pushed against the wall. This room was for 2 people. We upgraded to a room with two queen sized beds for an additional $20 per night. When I spoke to the woman at the front desk about how unacceptable the original room was, she made the snide comment, "That's what you get through Priceline" Maybe so, but nowhere on the entire Hotel Deca website are you given any warning that your room (to use the term loosely) would be furnished with only a full-sized mattress.

It was an excellent location for my friend and her mom because it was so close to the University of WA. It's a central location in the U District, walking distance from a movie theater, resturants, and even a bit of a walk to Green Lake.

Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Nov 14 2007 Something different I liked this hotel because the room was not your average boring hotel. The bed was comfy, the style was retro-modern, there was a great tv and dvd player, and an ipod docking station so we could listen to music while we got dressed for the day. We could see the space needle from the window, and it was fairly quiet during the night. Not too expensive for the city, but wasn't the cheapest thing either. But no hot tub or pool. Would certainly recommend it, and wouldn't mind staying there again!

Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Sep 19 2007 Poor Service for Professionals The place felt like a cheap one star hotel masquerading as a nicer hotel with its superficially chic, but cheap-on-closer-inspection-art-deco furniture.

Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on May 23 2006 liked it Good coffee shop, good happy hour, great breakfast, and nice lounge with wireless. Go there and walk around the Ave for some entertainmen. There are a number of grocery stores and resturants on University Way. Right off of I-5.
