Super 8 Seattle

There is a reason they charge less than the other hotels in the area…
The only nice thing I can say is, they do have nice towels! A/​C works good. Wi-​fi is so so. Breakfast is standard; they do have a waffle machine! Everything else is a different story. They don’t have a refrigerator and microwave in the room as they promised. We were able to put our stuff from the ice chest into the hotel refrigerator and freezer. The beds are horrible; it sinks down when you get on it and move around and makes a lot of noise. The chairs sink down the same way. The pillows are flat, hard, and lumpy. Who knows when the carpet was vacuumed last … I keep stepping on little pieces of something on their dark carpet all over the room. No, I didn’t have the courage to find out what they were; I just kicked them to the corner. We opened the window to let in some fresh air, and there is no screen on the window!
We are definitely NOT coming back!

We put our inlaws in this hotel for their early morning flight the next day. When we arrived to checkin there was a long wait. Then we were told there is a shuttle service but only to the Light Rail station and not to the airport terminals. We were told on the phone they had shuttle service but they neglected to say it wasnt to the airport despite the fact they are a hotel next to the airport. My inlaws are in their 80’s and not very mobile and need assistance. I had to at the last second scramble to figure out what to do with them in terms of how they would get over to the airport terminal. Shame on you SUPER 8 for your false information on shuttle service just to get someone to stay at your hotel.
If you can lie about your shuttle service what else are you lying about? Taking advantage of 80+ yr old seniors is disgraceful!

I thought the room was fine, the staff good, and the shuttle appreciated. What I just found out is that by inquiring about the room over the phone and deciding to stay there, the person I spoke with «enrolled me» in a shoppers program and has been charging me $ 17 a month for the past year and a half. I didn’t know this was going on and have never used it. I called my bank and they said they will do what they can to help. I am both embarrassed and angry to have this happen with me.

This place sucks. I had to reactive my card every time I went to my room. My rooms AC was broken.

We stayed here for 4 nights and was satisfied with the overall quality and value of the hotel. The rates were very competitive compared to other hotels I checked in the general vicinity, and a lot cheaper than hotels in downtown Seattle.
We used their free shuttle service to the light rail, and bought ORCA cards with day passes loaded and saved a lot of money by not having to rent a car. The shuttle driver will even pick you up from the light rail station if requests, and he even dropped and picked people up from nearby restaurants. If you want to catch the bus back, you can take the A bus from Tukwila station and it will drop you off a block away from the hotel.
The free breakfast was great. It is just your standard waffle, cereal, yogurt and pastries. But this saves a lot of money and time and held us over to lunch during our sightseeing.
My room was decent. Flat screen TV, ample storage, the beds were comfortable, the sheets felt clean. The bathroom was spotless, but our shower head was broken (you know when it is stuck in between two different settings? It was like that), neighbors and hallways were quiet. The AC was not obnoxiously loud like other hotels. My room did not smell like smoke, however, I saw a cigarette burn in one of the blankets.
The staff I came in contact with were extremely nice and helpful.
I would stay here again.

I stayed here a couple days ago because I was leaving on an early flight. The bathroom was very clean, however it did smell a little bit like smoke. The beds were clean and the rooms were very well managed. Overall was satisfied with my stay, even though it was only for a few hours.

Cheap… mediocre rooms and bed. Sterile… definitely good for the Motel 6 crowd, but offer a larger room. Parking lot has a crater in the middle where you enter to add to the days excitement.

Bed comfortable, people are nice but wondering why my room did not get clean, hopefully someone will be disciplined for lying that the room was cleaned.
By the way, first time ever, a room with no iron board or iron and I was charged a deposit of $ 25. Per day for incidentals???

The cheapest thing I could find this close to the airport, and it is close: a 20 min walk if you can’t be bothered waiting for the shuttle — they only seem to have one vehicle so it’s a little slow to get round the loop. But the hotel itself is just fine: my room was clean and secure and the staff were helpful and polite, even at 1am. They offer the standard depressing breakfast for this kind of hotel. Some people might complain about the plane noise… but it’s an airport hotel!

We booked them so that we could keep our car in their lot for a week. The hotel was as expected (for a budget hotel). The breakfast was a little bit of a surprise; they had waffle irons, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, and a packaged cinnamon roll.
However, the shuttle wasn’t as expected and it was the main reason we stayed here. We were told that the shuttle would come «right away» when we called. We had someone at Super 8 ready to pick one of our party up and found our their definition of «right away» is 25 minutes. When they came to pick us up it was a full shuttle, looks like they might wait for a full load. It would have quicker to walk.

I was pretty scared after reading a few reviews. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Room on the 2^nd floor was wonderful. Definitely would stay here again for the price.

If I could give it no stars at all I would. We booked on expedia and when we got to the hotel we were asked to pay extra charges that we were not told we had to pay. When we were talking to the front desk they were being extremely unfriendly. We got to the room and it was horrible. Smelled strongly of smoke and felt very dirty. We decided that we could not stay at the hotel and left. Avoid this hotel. It was absolutely terrible.

Service is good but rooms are tired and small. They are painting some rooms but they will still be small. First room had problems but got moved with no problem.

We booked the hotel through priceline and arrived pretty late at night. The staff was efficient and very friendly. There was a booking discrepancy (we wanted 2 rooms with 2 queen in each. and somehow it was 2 rooms with 1 queen) The gal was very helpful and re-​assigned us to the correct rooms and next to each other as requested. For a hotel that is by the airport and for the price, we were not expecting the Ritz. It was a room with beds and a shower to accommodate us for the night. Bed was comfortable enough to sleep in and the AC wasn’t too loud. Not bad for a night stay.

So we have stayed here during an annual trip to the PNW for 3 years in a row. This time — yuk our room reeked. I don’t know if the issue is just the first floor because the building is on an hill and so the first floor is partially subterranean. But gosh, dark, depressing and a smell of mildew and urine. Gross. The lights shorted out, the mattress box springs are stained majorly and the bottoms of the mattresses are ripped and hanging down. Floors are dirty and mildew stains on the linoleum in the bathroom. I guess next year we will look at one of the other nearby hotels.

I was disappointed with the motel. For some place offering such nice extras: breakfast, pool, excersise none of it was open for the entire two days we were there. I don’t expect much. Maybe a small pool or breakfast cereal bowls but nothing? They don’t seem to care

We stayed at the Super 8 Seat Tac after flying in late. We had reservations through Expedia (non-​cancel) The motel had completely overbooked their park & fly so even though they had many room openings, there was no place to park. There were several cars parked idling waiting for an opening which probably never happened. We ended up parking right near the office door overnight (with permission from front desk). The front desk area and hallways had an overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke. The wi-​fi was never did work. We told the front desk, but the lady there wasn’t able to get it going and seemed overwhelmed with all she had to deal with (she was super nice though) The night before we flew out, we opted not to stay at this hotel again.

We stayed here for one night because our flight came in late and regretted it. Ugly, sad décor, scary stains (blood?) on bathroom floor, the mattress was ancient, destroyed and scooped like a canoe. Neither one of us slept at all. In such a hurry to leave I forgot my iPod and called right away but will never see it again. Stay away. It’s in a bad neighborhood and not worth the $ 30 you might save.

I stayed down here when it was supposed to snow last Wednesday night to make sure that I made my flight early Thursday morning. They had an extended parking deal for less than $ 90 (one night plus a few more of parking), a shuttle to/​from the airport, free Wifi, and an available non-​smoking room at the last minute, so they had everything I needed. The front desk lady was friendly. Although the hallways smelled a little odd, my room was very clean and I felt completely safe. One major let-​down: the shower was definitely not hot.
So why five stars to an airport motel? I took the shuttle back last night and got back to the motel at about midnight. I then discovered my car battery was dead. It was POURING and cold. Larry, my shuttle driver, whose shift was over, went and got a friend and battery cables for me. We found out that you can’t put my car into neutral and slide it out of the spot when the battery is dead, so he tried to fit the van into the tiny spot next to me (without dinging either car). Whhen the van didn’t get far enough in to make the cables reach, he went back and got his own personal car to charge mine up for me. He waited to make sure my car was running all right before I went home.
Customer service doesn’t happen like this everywhere, folks. Therefore, five stars to the Super 8. Seriously.
