BethUnited StatesVery comfortable and friendly place, a short distance from the train station.
One of two stalls were closed, apparently for repairs
MarlenaPolandGreat stay!
Location, close to Seattle bus station
璿嘉TW大體來說很滿意，雖然不喜歡氣味與隔音。但設施簡單，齊全，員工客氣耐心。值得回訪
位置，可以自己下廚的廚房，自己儲存食物的空間。付費的洗衣間，乾淨的衛浴。這個價格的性價比真的很高
氣味與隔音。不知道爲何，有種悶悶臭臭的味道。不到難以忍受，但不舒服。隔音也很爛，走廊關門的聲音都聽得到。所以飯店提供免費耳塞
ErinUnited StatesGreat staff support, close to everything, very accessible, summer nights are hot.
Location was perfect in Chinatown and only a 10 minute walk to Lumen Field and 15 to the Mariners. 2 minutes to light line.
Very challenging in the summer as there is no AC and the rooms and building are hot! Wouldn’t…

Payment & property

- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about American Hotel Hostel
What time is check-in and check-out at American Hotel Hostel?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does American Hotel Hostel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Does American Hotel Hostel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does American Hotel Hostel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book American Hotel Hostel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
