What we did not like? Property does not have parking belongs to hotel. We ve been told to park our car to nearby garage which was not convenient due to our heavy luggage. It was couple of blocks away. Then we told hotel service to give us other parking options. They told us to do street parking. But we also didn't risk. At the end, we had to park our car to empty field behind the hotel with our own risks. I couldn't sleep until morning by thinking car’s condition.

We loved the charm and history of this cute hotel. It was perfectly located for our needs. It is also very close to a lot of food and retail. The room was clean and smelled great (kudos to the cleaning staff!). The bed was very comfortable. Finally, the price was moderate. Would definitely book again.

ZERO MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTABILITY
I have two daughters that attend UW and I have stayed here several times. During this past stay I had several customer service and safety concerns, the major one being that the front door was left unlocked at around 11pm. I emailed the Inn directly to address them the next day and was indirectly told I was being untruthful. Michael, the manager, took the time to review the camera to count the number of coffee cups, but not take the time to confirm that the front door was left unlocked. I'm shocked by the utter lack of accountability and lack of concern for his guests safety.

Convenient area next to the University of Washington and close to the U-District train station. Staff generally responsive to messages but mostly absent for in-person support needs. Nice modern rooms including sink and mirror. Shared bathrooms were fine - clean but nothing special. Great value for money overall.

The location cannot be beat - incredibly convenient to UW campus, the Ave, and West Campus dorms. I love the European style of the hotel, relatively small, quaint and good use of shared spaces. I have stayed in rooms with and without a bathroom and both arrangements work fine. The common area "Loft" has shared a shared, fridge, microwave and toaster, coffee/tea, and chairs/tables to spread out to eat, chill, read, work or play games. I could go on and on but do need to mention the consistently awesome staff. The property is clean and well maintained. Even with remote check in options and not always seeing someone at the entry desk, they are always responsive and helpful via text or phone. If you can't do stairs, this is probably not the best match. However, there may be accessibility options that I am not aware of.

Unfortunately, I did not have a great stay at the College Inn. The street noise was the main culprit - There is a popular cafe underneath the Inn and college students/patrons were very loud past 2am on a Tuesday night. The bathrooms are shared, which normally wouldn't be so bad if you weren't in town for a colonoscopy the next morning. Nightmare. I suppose I can only blame myself on that one. There is no elevator, so if you have lots of heavy baggage it may not be a suitable accommodation. On the plus side, check-in was setup fairly well. The Inn rooms are very nice and clean. My experience might have been much better on a different night, so take it with a grain of salt.

This dorm style hotel is quite worn and my room smelled like smoke. Also, there is no elevator so you have to carry all your luggage up steep stairs (the staff did not offer to help). It is a very cheap option for staying in the U District, but you get what you pay for.
