    If you’re going into this with low expectations, take them down a few more notches and you might be okay. Everything is worn out, the staff is not helpful, amenities that the hotel says they offer on the website here are not actually true, and they refuse to refund even when called and asked to by hotels.com customer service (a month before the actual stay). I don’t stay at fancy hotels, but I would say this is the worst place I’ve ever stayed at. Non smoking room smelled of old smoke and gave my husband allergies. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. And would never ever recommend this place.

    Close to the airport, but the shuttle only runs in the daytime, I booked it thinking I could use the shuttle no luck. Missed it by 1/2 hour called the hotel they wouldn't come and pick us up.

    Well...The only thing I can say about my stay is that I was eventually able to sleep. As I entered the room, I quickly scurried to eliminate a medium sized cockroach before it crept it's way into my luggage. I was very tired, so I wrote it off. I sat on the bed, turned on the TV. Alas, no TV. Oh joy! I went to the front desk to complain. To no avail. I gave up until the next day. I returned to the room to wind down and take a shower. TWENTY minutes until the water was acceptable. Niiiiice. The best part of my stay was checking out. Quick and easy. If you reeeally care about checking out...

    I have to be honest about this hotel, it was very out dated and nasty. There was a big spot of mold in the bathroom wall. Remote was so sticky and nasty. The ac smelled like pee. There was several big pee spots on top blanket. Sheets were wrinkled and upside down like someone else slept on them. The one wash cloth in the bathroom was so dirty and had big stain on it like blood annd lots of black filth. Out dated is one thing but the nasty blanket and linen was a no. It got very hard to breath it scared me. I looked for another hotel last night, we were going to leave. They were actually cheaper than this one but I heard my husband snoring I didn’t want to wake him. I’m sorry to describe this hotel like this. I don’t want to hurt any business but this was too bad.

    - as soon as I had checked in front desk calls for me to move room which was inconvenient due to broken Toilet Handle - pics of hotel depicts microwave in room when there isnt- same with breakfast which didn't happen - Door to bathroom doesn't close unless you slam door Tv remote doesn't turn TV on. Have to manually turn it off, which was annoying when trying to go bed.

    There isn’t anything I’d say I liked about staying here. Booked it through Expedia as part of a package, because we needed to stay late night before getting our rental then next morning. The main reason we chose this hotel from Expedia search was because of the airport transfer. No where on the hotel listing or the Expedia listing did it indicate that the shuttle only operated between 7am and 7 pm. Wasn’t clear until you clicked on the link in the app to notify the hotel or your arrival. The hotel looks nothing like the pictures online. Had it not been after 11 pm we would have tried to book alternative accommodations. The remote control had a sticky film on it…. I’m hoping it was a cleaning product residue. The one staff person that was there the entire time of our stay was very friendly and kind but was clearly alone and there was a wait line or about 3 other parties checking in when we checked in. Despite it being non/smoking room on a non-smoking corridor, the room had a strange smell. Could’ve been the carpets? We woke up to water on the bathroom floor. We were hoping it would as condensation from the toilet, but did not investigate too much. Just wanted to get out of there.

    We booked our trip on Expedia / hotels.com in advance. The hotel clerk said they "couldn't" find the reservation even though we showed them the confirmation email and it was showing active in the app. Rather than honor our price, they told us that if we wanted a room, we had to pay their full price. Now I need to work on getting a refund through Expedia. What a hassle.

    You get what you pay for. Definitely a convenient location if you need to be close to the Seattle airport. Took less than a 15 minute walk at 4 am. The room had a strong odor of butter or something. But for the price and just needing somewhere to leave our luggage and a quick sleep before our flight, 65$ was fair.

    I don't know where to begin with this place, I only stayed there to get some rest due a 15 hour layover, my room was not clean, there was something dry liquid on the sink, stain on the pillow, the smell was horrible, The WIFI kept disconnecting. But the shocker for me was the $100 deposit, i had no idea i was going to have to pay or i would have defiantly stayed somewhere else. Yes, you get it back, but its absurd for this charge. Which only leads me to believe, there some not so good stuff going on here that would enforce them to implement such deposit. Overall, I would book elsewhere. Defiantly will be staying away from this hotel. If I need to book something close to the airport again in the future.

    This is a low budget inn and you get what you pay for. I was very happy overall but I had very low expectations. There were some bugs by the sink, but the room was clean (very run down with duct tape repair of the bathroom floor). The bed and linens were clean and comfortable. The location was awesome, easily within walking distance of the airport. The easiest way to get there was to go to the metro station and exit at the ground level, it is less than a 0.2 mile walk from there.

    The whole hotel didn’t smell pleasant. It could have been because smoking is allowed on the 3rd floor, maybe, I’m not sure. It smelled old, idk, not fresh. The carpet was lumpy and odd. The walls were dirty, the sink was cracked. I could hear all the neighbors. There’s supposed to be a 30% discount with Papa John’s pizza…it did not work. The door beside the lobby has a sign that it must be locked at all times. It was never closed when I came in. I closed it at first until I realized that the guest door keys don’t work on it. Plus, it seemed I was the only one closing it. Talk about a safety hazard. They supposed a descent sized refrigerator, but would have been better if it kept things cold. Did I complain about this? No. I stayed there to save money and didn’t stay there during the day. Just at night to sleep. The towels and sheets were clean, the comforter, while very dated, was clean as well. Shampoo, conditioner, and soup were full. The employees were polite. That’s about all the good things I can think of. I don’t recommend this hotel.

    When I walked into the lobby to check in there was no one there I waited almost 10mins even after ringing the bell multiple times with no answer!! The room seemed no very clean, half used toilet roll still in the bathroom, the bed was uncomfortable n uneven, absolutely horrid attempts at remodeling/touch ups cable wires ding out of the wall hanging down behind a desk. The worst was getting a ph call 30 mins before checkout to remind me to checkout. In nearly 30 years of traveling I’ve never been bothered by ph to checkout. Asked the employee after saying checkout is at 11am, I said I know it said that when I booked the room and the guy told me again when I checked in. That was really annoying n rude!!! I could understand if it was after 11am but it was 10:30am I had barely woken up 15mins before and when I dropped off my room key and couldn’t wait to get out of there!!! Will never stay at the brand of hotels again !!!!

    Here’s what it needs: Quality maintenance. Our phone and battery charger plugs just fell out of the outlets.For 10 minutes of work and 5 bucks the outlets could be replaced. Our window screen appeared to have been pryed off at some point and just put back in place. Seeing that and the parking lot behind our room, made me feel that it would be easy to break in, so we didn’t leave the room to get dinner and potentially find our things stolen. The carpet, though there were no holes, felt grimy. Poor drywall patching everywhere. There is unpainted OSB next to the ice machine, like a project was started and then abandoned. The hotel just needs some care. It didn’t feel like a happy place. If you just need a bed for cheap, then this will work. But it’s not a destination and there are minimal services at the hotel and in the area. But, even at $80 for the night, it felt like we overpaid by 60 bucks.

    This hotel was without any doubts THE DIRTIEST PLACE I HAVE EVER STAYED AT. Within 5 minutes of being in the room I had already killed 3 cockroaches and saw a couple more running around. The carpet was filthy, the furniture old and when I opened the bed there was a hair on the sheet. I was too tired to leave,but got up early the next day and left. The shuttle bus driver was unpleasant and dropped everyone off at the same spot, not taking each of us to our airlines.

    I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an inexpensive hotel close to Seatac airport NOT stay at the Roadway Inn. It was filthy inside and the hallways to the room had not been vacuumed, maybe ever. When we arrived we were told that we had signed up for a smoking room, which was clearly not true. He told me he had no other rooms available but he would spray the room to get the odor out. The room still smelled like smoke and was totally disgusting. The towel next to the sink was wet. The sink faucet was broken and sprayed water everywhere and then was difficult to turn off. Just because a hotel is inexpensive and doesn't have the usual amenities doesn't mean that it has to be disgusting. The only thing good about the place is there is a shuttle to the airport.

    We drove down from Vancouver BC for an early flight out of SeaTac after a wedding. The room was disgusting. We saw two cockroaches and a few tiny bugs crawling around the bathroom floor. The sheets were stained, so we slept on top of the duvet and placed a tshirt over the pillowcase. If we hadn't been exhausted from driving and didn't have such an early flight, we would have definitely found a different place. As it was, thankfully we only stayed here for a few hours.

    When you spend $80 for a motel room you kinda know what you are going to get. I was fine with a rundown motel but in their description they said they had an airport shuttle and that was the ONLY reason I chose them. I had an early fight out of Seatac and when I checked in I found out that their shuttle only runs after 7am and you have to have make a reservation 2 days in advance. So I ended up paying over $20 for an Uber. Do yourself a favor and get a more expensive place with a shuttle that runs for early fights.

    This motel was the most disgusting place I have ever stayed. I booked it based on reasonable reviews for an overnight after a long day flying. Polyester sheets. Dirty pillow cases, so I put towels on the pillows and got a rash from them. We “slept” in our clothes and didn’t open our suitcases… afraid of bedbugs. The carpet felt sticky. No idea what exactly the bad smell came from. Every piece of furniture was in disrepair. The tv didn’t work at all. Flickering fluorescent overhead lights. The sidewalk ramp outside was patched with plastic mats. We couldn’t get out of there fast enough in the morning, and then the front desk person and the shuttle driver both gave us wrong directions to the airport rental car shuttle. I am so disappointed by all the other reviewers who weren’t honest about this place. Spend the little bit extra on the Best Western next door, or any of the other nearby motels. Don’t risk your health and well being in this awful place.

    I knew I was not going to get the best hotel/room for the price but first off the guy who answers the phone barely speaks any English. Once the shuttle picks you up the driver is rude and watches tv while driving you down the road. Once you get to the hotel no worker speaks good English. The area is run down and so is the hotel. The main lobby and other areas smelled horrible with no A/C either. Once we got into the room it was Hot/Stuffy since the Air was turned off. The floor was not clean. The tv did not work. The fridge was very old and did not work. The bed was stained with weird stains and had cigarette burn holes all over it. Rat poison sitting on the floor. I 100% would have paid more if I knew it was like this. Please see pictures.

    The location was good for me. Walk from Seatac airport to the hotel (and they have a nice shuttle, but walking is just as quick), walk to the 1-line for a fast trip to downtown Seattle. Price is about 1/4 of the cheapest hotels downtown. Staff were friendly and responsive to the problem with the shower head that sprayed all over the bathroom, and they quickly made more coffee in the lobby when it was empty. The bed and room were spacious and comfortable. Towels were clean and very soft. Bad: I read another review that mentioned roaches. I only saw 4 of them. They weren't the big flat kind, more medium sized and very fast, too fast to stomp on. Good: The cleaning person had left a spray bottle of tub and tile cleaner in the room. This is a bit sticky and stops the roaches in their tracks, kind of like a shotgun for roaches, got them with the first squirt every time. Then the bleach in it seems to kill them although they do struggle for a bit. Overall: Really quite a good value, if you overlook the roaches.

    The first thing I noticed in the room was the lack of a security lock. The door had the regular lock, but no additional means to secure the door. While the room had a refrigerator, there was no coffee machine or microwave. The television did not work. Maintenance the next morning confirmed that it was not working. The TV itself was very old and not a flat screen prevalent now for at least the last 15 years. The room itself was in rough shape. This hotel is an economy priced facility, so don't expect much. If it were not for the non-functioning TV, it would have been barely satisfactory for a quick overnight stay

    CRAWLING WITH COCKROACHES! Dank smell. Room was far worse than pictured. Stained bedding, holes in carpet, the only mirror had a large crack all across it. First floor was build into a hill, so room was mostly underground, and the view from the window was of a large weed patch at eye level. Worst hotel experience of my life! I tried to speak with manager multiple times, but he was never "available" and didn't return my calls. DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU WANT TO GET ANY SLEEP!

    I remember in the day the $125 + $100 deposit got you a clean room and a place to use the bathroom and sleep while waiting for you next flight from SeaTac. However, those days are gone. This place was a definitely a cockroach hotel because i had to kill at least 5 them around the room and on the bed. I didn't notice it sooner when i came into the room but when I came back from downtown i used the sink to wash my hand's that sink bowl was badly cracked. So I paid for the room plus a deposit of $100 usd which i don't know if i will get it back. Lesson learned. Just spend $250 for a Decent hotel around the SeaTac.

    This hotel was a disgrace to the Choice Hotel brand. Dirty,dated, damaged furniture and walls throughout. Beds looked like someone else slept in them.

Had to call Hotels.com at 1;30 am when first arrived because the clerk was so rude and refused the receipt. Couldn’t get another hotel after the cruise, so we had to stay there again. Got a receipt this time-/probably because Hotels. Com called them about it on the first stay. Had to sleep in my clothes o towels on top of the spread. Not enough room for further comment.
