We wanted to stay somewhere other than downtown on our most recent trip to Seattle. We actually enjoyed the area, we walked around a little and enjoyed having free parking as well. The hotel rooms are small, however, big enough for our needs. The rooms are looking a little worn, there were water stains on our ceiling. My biggest complaint... More

Hello Sundaydriving, Thank you for letting me know about your recent stay. While “Decent Stay” is not bad, the next time you visit us I guarantee you the title of your post will be “Outstanding Stay”. I will look at address the issue with the fitted sheets.

I had a recent business trip to the U district in Seattle. Hotels in the U district are a very mixed assortment of poor hotels and overpriced better hotels. I have stayed in several but had never stayed in the Deca. As another reviewer pointed out, the hotel is an older property but has been nicely remodeled. I only spent... More

We had a decent stay. The rooms have been remodeled extremely well, but in the end it's still an old hotel which no amount of lipstick can hide. That's both good and bad. Great deep tub in the bathroom, but no ventilation fan. The location is outstanding and the staff was pleasant.

Arrived last Wednesday while traveling on business. Was given a nice room on the 3rd floor by the front desk agent. Asked for a high floor and was told I booked a cheaper rate and needed to book a higher category. Room was nice although small. No major issues. I returned back to my room after dinner and went to...

We attended Opening Day Regatta last weekend. This hotel was minutes away from the regatta site. The hotel is situated in a nice neighborhood. The hotel staff were polite and attentive. The rooms were spacious. Tully's coffee shop in the hotel lobby was great for a morning latte!

The Hotel Deca in the University District of Seattle is an excellent option in Seattle. The staff could not have been nicer. The room was clean, large and had a great view of Downtown Seattle and the price offered good value. I liked the location, just 4 miles from Downtown, but with the added vibrancy of the nearby University of... More
