the telephone was out of order and i was trying to plan a funeral. i reported it. they offered me their cell phone if i went to the lobby. i didn't know if messages were working. had to stay one more night and had to change to a different room, twice as much $. no adjustment for the phone problem. more

The room was comfortable with a table and chairs and microwave, coffeemaker and refrigerator standard in all rooms. The only negative was that the carpet needed cleaning. Otherwise, the rest of the room was clean. The staff were very friendly and efficient. Public transportation to downtown Seattle was on the same corner and was only a 10-15 minute trip to... more

This is located 5 miles north of downtown Seattle on the 358 bus route. Buses stop right outside the motel at the intersection with 85th Street. It’s a 20 minute ride into town and buses run every 15 minutes in peak time. Fares are either $1.75 or $2.00 depending upon the time of day, so transportation is not an issue.... more

I own a small older (ok, REALLY old) motel across the street from Travelodge and decided on a whim to check out the Travelodge, formerly Emerald Inn. I see this establishment day after day from my office window and always, without fail, it looks impeccable. It's probably the nicest motel in the surrounding area. I asked to see a room... more

For $100 per night; I expected the sheets to at least fit the bed. All night long we had to keep tugging on the corners to put them back in place, but they kept working loose and we'd find ourselves on the mattress instead of on the sheets. I went to the office to ask the front desk clerk to... more

I stayed for a week in May and was satisfied with the accommodations. The room was a decent size and clean, sheets were changed daily and the location was reasonably quiet. It has a small fridge, microwave and coffee maker. No room service (it’s a budget hotel), but the staff directed me to a nearby Safeway. If you’re going to... more

Our in room coffee pot had a huge chip in the top of the glass that should have been noticed by housekeeping. When I called to front desk for another pot, I was told the hotel was fully booked and he would "see" if he could find anything. After half a hour, my husband went down to front desk to... more

My husband and I only stayed here for two nights. The pros: The price was good. The location is central if a bit down-trodden. The staff is friendly and helpful, more so than I would have expected for the price. The rooms were basic, but clean, and the showers were hot. There is a microwave and a refrigerator in the... more

The travel lodge was a life saver to us. Our hotel reservations that we had made at the Holiday Inn Express across the street were given away in "error" and we found ourselves (5 of us total) without a place to stay. We called the Travel Lodge and sure enough they could accomodate our group and even saved us money.... more
