University District Location
Located in Seattle's University District, just steps from the University of Washington campus and University of Washington Medical Center. The U-District Light Rail station is a 5-minute walk away, providing 8-minute access to downtown Seattle. The neighborhood features The Ave with independent shops, cafes, and affordable dining options. Gas Works Park is 1.5 km away.
Guest Services & Amenities
Services include complimentary high-speed WiFi throughout the property, concierge assistance, luggage drop-off, and a communal living room. The hotel completed extensive renovations in 2020 while maintaining its historic Tudor Revival exterior. Safety features include carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, and first aid kits.
“College Inn Hotel provides a distinct experience near the University of Washington; its historic building offers character that some may find charming. The location is ideal for exploring the U District, though the lack of modern amenities like elevators and AC should be considered. For travellers seeking budget-friendly accommodation with a vintage feel, this could be a fitting choice, but those expecting contemporary comforts may prefer alternative options.”
