The hostess was wonderful! She took care of my reservations, and made sure that I was comfortable and safe, as I as a female was traveling on my own. Awesome service, warm yet professional

Rooms were clean, price was decent. Lots of awesome food trucks around if you like tacos. Was a bit sketchy late at night or early morning (when I was leaving) aside from that it was a cool area if you want to stuff your face with various foods. Oh and there is a really cool Asian grocery store down the street a few blocks.

The front desk staff and owners were so friendly and helpful. I had asked for a quiet room, after traveling for 2 days to reach Seattle, and Joy set us up in the perfect room. We didn't hear a sound all night. The room was clean and spacious with comfortable beds. The hotel is a little distance out of downtown, but you save a lot of money for nice accommodations. Getting there was easy via the E line bus, and that also saved lots of money compared with Lyft/Uber.

The property itself was very nice and clean. Excellent price. The only problem was explaining to my son that the prostitutes didn’t come with the Hotel/Motel.

This stay was great! The check-in process was a breeze and took only a couple minutes. What I loved most about it was the security of the motel, the entire facility aside from the front lobby are inside of a secured electronic fence that closes automatically at 10pm and a code is required to get in or out. I felt extemely safe! It is Seattle after all, so the extra security is amazing! The room was SUPER clean, and had all of the necessary amenities. Plenty of towels, a microwave, coffee maker, mini fridge - with a REAL freezer, a wardrobe, and a window unit air conditioner that kept the room perfectly cool! The bed was also one of the softest motel/hotel mattresses I've ever used! The shower was huge and had a decently large rack to place my toiletry bottles so I didn't need to put them on the shower floor! The water pressure was also perfect and the water temperature was consistent unlike other establishments I've used in Seattle. There were plenty of food options, grocery stores, and shopping areas within a five-minute drive as well! For the price, this is one of my new favorite motels and I do plan on utilizing it in the future! I highly recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind being a little bit further away from downtown Seattle! It's a lot more relaxing!

I stayed in Best Motel several times. The staff is friendly. Bedding is great. I like that the fridge is in a separate small room with a desk. Lovely. I feel safe that they have a huge sliding door to keep non-resident out.

Older motel that has been remodeled. Rooms are small, but clean and functional. Parking lot is gated, closed at 10 pm, but can be opened with password. Lobby is kept locked. Signs "No selling drugs No using drugs No prostitution" prominently displayed. Might be typical for Seattle, what we saw of it was filthy and full of homeless and drug addicted. Sad. Not what we're used to. The other guests at the motel seemed normal, with one exception.

Amazing, secure stay provided by the best staff
We chose Best Motel because of the recent rave reviews and after our 1 night stay, we completely agree! The NICEST hotel staff I have ever encountered, everyone was friendly and determined to do anything to make our stay as great as possible The close proximity to the Northgate light rail was so nice. I really appreciated the gated security (the parking lot is secured and locked and can only be entered with a code after 10pm). On our drive back to the motel from our concert we saw quite a few ladies of the night and other characters so the security was added peace of mind. The room was nice and clean and SMELLED SO GOOD. I will 100% stay again!

We needed a one night stay to attend a Seahawks game. We also didn’t want to pay a small fortune. This was our first time staying here and it worked out well for us. The staff greeted us warmly and efficiently and our room was nice too. The extra safe and secure parking was very much appreciated as well. Water pressure in the shower was a nice treat too. Wifi worked really well throughout our stay and the coffee in our room was also good. We would stay here again without any hesitation.
