Reviews

• Candace from United States – 3 May 2025 (9/10)

  Clean and cozy, budget friendly. I was surprised by the small rooms and the shared bathrooms at first but the rooms were adorable and clean and the bathrooms maintained very well. We had no issues for our one night stay. Could get a little cramped for a longer stay. You can upgrade to a deluxe room for a charge.
  
  What could be improved: No elevator which was fine for us but I could see it being an issue for some for sure. Desk was very helpful and offered to carry our bags up but for anyone using a walker or wheelchair or who had problems with stairs this is not going to be your place. It is very loud at night. We were across from the comedy club and it was very loud until at least 3 or 4 am. I suggest leaving the tv on for background noise or using the complementary earplugs. They also have fans which was a nice touch for us fan sleepers.

• Sean from United States – 30 April 2025 (9/10)

  The staff were very nice and accommodating. The rooms were really clean and nice too. Complementary breakfast was really great too with lots of quality products.
  
  What could be improved: No complaints honestly. Would definitely stay here next time I’m in Seattle.

• Janet from Canada – 22 April 2025 (9/10)

  great location for a show at the Climate Pledge Arena!

• Annelie from Dominican Republic – 20 April 2025 (9/10)

  It was great! I loved it. Tho, there’s stairs so beware if you have mobility difficulties
  
  What could be improved: It’s close by to a club so you might listen to the outside music

• Elisabeth from United States – 29 March 2025 (8/10)

  The room was comfortable and had everything I needed. In the future I would prefer a room away from the front desk as the people checking in and out were noisy.

• Sangster from United States – 28 December 2024 (9/10)

  Loved the location and the aesthetic

• Gabriela from United States – 8 December 2024 (9/10)

  The beds were very comfortable. The staff was incredibly kind and thoughtful, they gave us recommendations of nearby restaurants and attractions. Our room was clean and we loved the continental breakfast provided.
  
  What could be improved: The rooms could get a bit stuffy. One of the rooms we were in the electrical outlet just stopped working which sucked because I thought my phone was charging through the night and it didn’t. Lastly some of the showers had like insane water pressure, felt like I was getting hosed down by a hydrant lol

• Chris from United States – 11 November 2024 (9/10)

  Great location and breakfast.

• Alexandra from United States – 5 November 2024 (9/10)

  We’ve stayed at the Ace twice now, and it’s our favorite Seattle hotel: cute but non-pretentious, very friendly, in a great location near the water and some wonderful Belltown restaurants, and dog friendly.

• Bruce from United States – 25 October 2024 (9/10)

  I liked the eccentric decor. To me, the room had an "artist loft" feel. The barn door between the toilet and shower was especially interesting. And the retro turntable (which I could never figure out how to operate) and radio (which I did use) added to the quirky furnishings. The bed was very comfortable.
  
  We arrived mid-morning but check-in was not until 3pm. However, the desk employee found us a vacant room and checked us in. In fact, the employees with whom we dealt were phenomenal! Tracy, Christine, and Autumn were more than accommodating. Their friendly demeanor made our trip to Seattle even more enjoyable.
  
  What could be improved: I would have been nice to have an elevator, as we had to lug large suitcases up and down the stairs.
