“Took One Look, Demanded Money Back, Stayed Elsewhere”

Travelodge Seattle Sea-Tac Airport North

I booked this room via Trip Rewards web site to stay for one night prior to a flight home in the morning. I've stayed in a LOT of Travelodges throughout the country and they have always been adequate so I figured this one was similar. WRONG!!! Just driving into the parking lot, I got a bad feeling about the place. Dirty on the outside, homeless people mulling about in the parking lot, a car full of partiers in the back corner of the parking lot with their music blaring, etc.

I checked in and was told that the only way I would be able to get Internet access would be to stay in a room close to the office, even though all other Travelodges I have ever stayed in have wireless access no matter how far you stay from the main office. I decided to at least go check out the room, and as soon as I walked into the room I immediately backed right out of it, walked swiftly to the office, demanded they credit back the charge on my credit card, and drove down the street to Coast Gateway and checked in for the night.

The room was FILTHY and to be honest looked like it was the type of place that a prostitute would use on an hourly basis on skid row. It reeked of tobacco even though it was allegedly a nonsmoking room, the curtains were in tatters, the carpet needed to be nuked, the mirrors were filthy, the toilet had someone else's "finished product" in it and REEKED, and the scary thing was that the folks who were staying in the room next door were out on the walkway by the room drinking beer as if there was no tomorrow....quite drunk and rowdy.

This is NO PLACE for ANY traveler to stay in, and I suspect they house welfare recipients. Stay here at your own peril!

I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU AVOID THIS MOTEL AT ALL COSTS!!! AND, DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILDREN TO THIS MOTEL!

“Avoid this place like the plague!”

Travelodge Seattle Sea-Tac Airport North

1/1 found this review helpful

I stayed here for 3 nights. The photos make it look MUCH nicer than it actually is. It's right near a strip club and in a dangerous part of Seattle (i.e., I would never go out alone at night, being a single woman).

I only chose this hotel because 1) it was near the airport and I wasn't renting a car until a few days later, 2) it was economical (you get what you pay for, I suppose!) and 3, I had stayed at Travelodge motels in Europe and there's no comparison to this one. The room was ugly; the bed was okay, but not very comfortable. The walls were so thin that when I entered my room, I heard a man cough and thought I had the wrong room! I actually looked in the closet and the bathroom, expecting to see someone - that's how thin the walls were. The staff members were aloof; the only half-decent one was the shuttle driver! The continental breakfast was a joke. There was NO CREAM with the coffee, and this is Seattle, a coffee mecca!!

Don't stay here. Spend a few dollars more -- there are much nicer hotels near the airport. Better yet, stay in Seattle downtown or in one of the Seattle neighborhoods - if you do the research, you'll find good deals (I wish I had!).

“Worst Travelodge experience ever!”

Travelodge Seattle Sea-Tac Airport North

Mar 29, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

I have stayed at various Travelodge Hotels for business over the past 30 years. I have never seen a Travelodge Hotel THIS BAD ever! The booking dates turned out to be wrong, when I called to confirm my room, and had to rebook. When we arrived, the desk clerk was arrogant and rude. The hotel room only provided one bed, even though the booking was for 3 adults, and included a roll away cot, there was no cot, and the clerk didn't offer any assistance, his attitude was 'take it or leave it'. The furniture, a chair, was completely broken, the room was dirty, the shower/tub was mildewed in the corners, and the bathroom smelled of mould.
This motel is an embarrassment to the Travelodge name, and the Washington State Health Department should be looking very seriously at this facility.

“Limited parking, rude concierge”

Travelodge Seattle Sea-Tac Airport North

Mar 12, 2008
4/4 found this review helpful

We arrived at the hotel at around 1:30 AM after a long flight from the East Coast and a long wait in the airport, since the airline lost our luggage.

For starters, there was no place to park my car. The hotel advertises parking, but it is very limited, and there is not enough space for everybody. The concierge was completely oblivious to my problem. I drove around the area, but there was no parking anywhere. Finally I managed to squeeze my car in some very questionable spot (illegally, of course), risking having it towed or scratched if the neighbors are not careful enough.

But it did not end there. Instead of promised two beds our room had only one bad and a shaky roll-away. When I complained to the concierge, he started yelling at me and shouting obscenities. He even cared to follow me to the street and continued to shout as I walked away.

Later complaints to the management and requests for refund did not result in anything. Travelodge the network responded, but they said something like "we are sorry, but this is an independent facility, we don't control what they do".

Stay away from this hotel, especially if you arrive by car and need parking.

“The worst ever experience!”

Travelodge Seattle Sea-Tac Airport North

4/4 found this review helpful

A few weeks ago me and my husband stayed at this motel for just a few hours to catch our flight early in the morning. What a horrible few hours they were!

First, there was no elevator, so we had to drag our heavy luggage up the metal stairs leading to the second floor. Then, we could not open the door with a key card, and had to go downstairs again to exchange the key at the reception.

Upon entering the room it got only worse. The room was extremely non-cozy, and its interior reminded me of some ragged retro motel they always show in crime movies.

The light inside the room was harsh and super bright. The washroom sinks were merged together with the room itself, so you could not have any privacy in that sense. The whole room also smelled like smoke, even though we stayed in a supposedly non-smoking one.

BUT THE WORST of all was the lights which they have right above a large window in every room!! They were so bright, that we felt like it was a day even with the heavy black curtains draping our window. There is no way even a very tired person can sleep in those conditions!

Overall, I had the most unpleasant stay in Travelodge. This place is overdue to be shut down for the its unacceptable conditions. I have no idea how this place even got a permit to be in business. Never again I will even come close to this motel.
