Residence Inn by Marriott Seattle University District

PRO: great location close to subway stop, room was spacious and mostly quiet with kitchen with stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, silverware, plates, dishwashing detergent, dishwashing scrubber. Typical free hotel breakfast though I liked how the cereal and yogurt came in individual packages (and they didn't skimp on brand selection). We liked the walk in shower and in room breakfast seating. Allows dogs.

CON: I'm particularly sensitive to noise from rooms around me and on 1 of 4 mornings, I could hear stomping from room above me, so I don't know if that was due to poor sound insulation or that one instance the person above was doing something out of the ordinary. I did not hear sound from my neighbors though. If not for this, would have given 5 of 5 rating. For next time, I would try to get top floor room and would then be secure in knowing I would get noiseless sleep. There was occasional traffic noise, but so sporadic, it did not bother me. Being picky, the family did not like the breakfast sandwiches as they came in prepackaged bags that were probably microwaved. Only one of 2 elevators was working, but fortunately, never had to wait in line to get on elevator.

Overall, would definitely consider coming back to hotel next time I'm in Seattle, but would try to get top floor to minimize chance of noise bothering my sleep.

My stay at the Residence Inn Seattle University District exceeded all of my expectations. The hotel was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and every staff member I encountered was welcoming, friendly, and accommodating.

I especially want to recognize the manager, Justin. He went above and beyond to resolve an issue I experienced and provided customer service that was truly extraordinary. Justin is the epitome of what exceptional customer service should be. He was professional, compassionate, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure my stay was a great experience.

This was my first time staying at this location, but it certainly will not be my last. The outstanding service I received from Justin and the entire staff made all the difference. Thank you for making me feel valued as a guest. Justin, you are a true winner, and Marriott is fortunate to have someone of your caliber leading the team. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Seattle!Exceptional Stay with Outstanding Service from Justin

Wonderful staff. Very friendly.

Good location

the room was larger than expected. tons of amenities. the morning staff and breakfast were so excellent, but the front desk went out of their way to make my experience exceptional

The service and the environment

I like the fact that it has all the amenities of a studio apartment: pots, pans, cutlery, cups, etc.,

The rooms are very well appointed with full kitchen and plenty of space. It's not too far to the University metro stop or the campus. Breakfast is decent and there's more spacious seating options than at a lot of hotels with included breakfast.

Property was spacious and well maintained. Our room was large, well laid out and appointed; the bathroom was especially nice. Very nice breakfast. The staff made us feel welcome and comfortable.
