Such an awesome location for a cheap price. Entryway door is a little hidden in the wall, and you have to carry your luggage up a few flights of stairs to get to the main desk so pack accordingly. Staff was super friendly and cool, they have a weekly board of events that everyone in the hostel is included in such as drinking nights, free dinner every Sunday, a market tour every morning etc. Kitchen is free to use, just make sure you clean up after yourself. There's a Target conveniently next door too. Was in a co-ed room with 5 other people. All beds have privacy curtains but they aren't long or wide enough so your possibly nosy bunk mates might peek through. I was a little worried being in a co-ed but everyone kept to themselves in my room luckily. Beds weren't the most comfortable things but OK for my 2 night stay. Pillow was tiny and flat. They give you a sheet to sleep with and a thick blanket on every bed that they ask you to leave on the bed when you check out instead of bringing with the fitted sheet and pillowcase when you check out for them to wash so I assume they don't wash the blankets so beware. Bathrooms were all single person with a lock so you had ultimate privacy in the bathrooms. Everyone has their own locker underneath the bunk beds that have ample space to store your things. The Airbnb listing comes with a lock they give you upon arrival so I definitely felt safe leaving all my belongings in my locker. Check out is at 11AM, but you are free to store your luggage at the front desk until you need to leave the area. If you are taking the airport take the lightrail (7 minute walk from hostel) at University Street Station and take the 1 for Angel Lake. Will take you STRAIGHT to the airport for only $3 rather than a $63 uber. It was my first time taking a lightrail but so easy. Overall the building did have a sort of musk/old building smell but not unbearable. For the price, service and location this can't be beat. I wouldn't mind staying here in Seattle traveling alone again!
