Worth every dollar spent!
While the location is a little suspect, the hotel property is secure, super clean and the staff/family who runs it are friendly, considerate and courteous! The bed was very comfortable, we had the king size bed room. For the money spent, it was superb! Plus, it was near the NW Hospital which was critical for our Seattle visit.

Considering is a "motel" it was super clean! The rooms smell good! I love they ask for each ID photo, I love they do not allow any stranger to the property. The main gate has lock too so i feel secure even outside looks bad

Good stay for those an a budget.
It was good! The room are clean, sheets are clean. Cover was okay, I smelt like it was used once at least. Hotel provided hygeine supplies, water. Sorroundings are clean, gated parking. Hotel is in an okay area of N Seattle. It was good stay for its price. I will stay again and if on a budget, Best Motel is good place to stay.
