This moldy Airbnb was deceptively classified as a 3 star hotel. Sadly, we paid a huge price for a sham. I can’t unsmell the smell of the rooms -old mold. Moreover, the sheets appeared lightly used and fluffed for the next victim/guest.I itched like hell each night.And oh,the bugs and the giant mosquitoes in the claustrophobic basement. We were unprepared to be in a dungeon,changing rooms made no differ The tight bathrooms with dark small shower stalls were irky especially with black mold inbetween the joints. Due to the dinginess of the whole place we intentionally stayed out till very late to limit our exposure to the whole junk. I have never in my life spent a night in a hotel worse than this and I mostly use 3 or 4 star hotel.We were duped.This is morally wrong. This place is a joke . They used the Art picture to create a deceptive image. Unfortunately, they are able to get away with this crime because most victims have paid and can’t get their money back.The Art Inn of Seattle needs public health inspection.It is unfair. I am a healthcare professional and was tempted to call and report immediately. Exposing visitors to mold is evil. Expedia and other sites must remove them from their list until they address these issues which looks chronic because the rooms reeks the smell. Please covering evil with while comforters and art pictures does not make evil go away. This needs to be checked and addressed. We were seriously traumatized and dreaded every of our 3 nights there. .

Not an Inn and def not a boutique. This was an unattended somewhat renovated boarding house with individual locked rooms. Noisy, Bed very soft A/c did not keep room cool. Hard to walk around bed with out tripping on suitcase. On the up side we had free Netflix Misrepresentation.

The room was good and the small day bed in room 103 was super comfy. The keyless entry was really horrible though and a pain to deal with. Also, it would be nice to receive check in instructions and car/parking information the day before check in. Cars needed to be 18' or less and I brought my truck. Luckily I got it into the spot without blocking the alley but it would have been nice to know ahead of time.

Unfortunately I was not able to access my room in a timely manner, my party and I found a hotel elsewhere due to the uncertainty we faced. I was unable to access my room upon arrival and for quite a while afterwards. I did not receive communication via text when I was in contact with the phone number provided and did not receive an email back in that time. My call logs do not reflect an attempt to get into contact with me despite my attempts to reach out. Due to the significant inconvenience we faced I tried to contact the owner to ask for a refund for the troubles we experienced but two days later I have not heard from them. Would not recommend this property due to the uncertain we faced and difficulty with communication.

Our stay was flawless and very easy! First and foremost, the communication was incredible. Clear instructions for how to get there, where the parking was, and how to access the rooms. They were also very quick to respond. I had some questions and heard back quickly each time. Accessing the rooms was easy! There were no on-site staff members to help but it’s not needed. You download the app and have access to your room through your phone. The rooms were very clean and fun, too! It’s built out in a massive house and they’ve done a great job. Very much separate like a hotel, but unique layout like a home. Best of both worlds. They even let us have a late checkout which was extremely helpful and I’m thankful it worked out with timing. We’ll be back!!

This property was a hidden gem. I needed to stay close to Swedish Hospital and the location was perfect. Walkable area with plenty of restaurants. For the price, you have a very safe and clean place to stay. Loved the charm and artwork .

Could be better

I would've give 4 starts but the lack of cleaning. It dropped to 2. The installations are not bad, the room is small but is enough to stay the night, it has it's own bathroom. Going back to the cleaning part, as soon as we step in into the room, there was a horrible odor, like if we were walking into a bedroom of someone that lacks of personal hygiene. I'm not a clean psyco person but this is how bad it was. I checked the sheets and blanket to see if the odor was coming from there, and it wasn't. But there were long hairs of different colors all over the blanket, which made me think how many people has used this blanket before it was washed Even though the sheets were white after checking them closely, it seems like they were used several times before putting them in the laundry machine, outrageous! One of the pillows smelled horrible. I would have preferred a thousand times a more humble suite with everyday 100% cleanliness than this.
