The Marco Polo Motel offers a comfortable stay at a great price, with many guests noting they have paid much more for much less elsewhere. The staff is consistently described as friendly, welcoming, phenomenal, and the friendliest encountered. The rooms are generally clean, comfortable, and quiet, with comfy beds. Some rooms provide an authentic ‘90s or vintage vibe, with a specific room offering a special, memorable experience for fans with thoughtful keepsakes. The motel is in a good, wonderful area, perfect for walking to local attractions and close to everything needed, including Fremont, downtown Seattle, Capitol Hill, and Pike Place Market. There is lots of parking. The property is in the process of upgrading and renovation, so some new furniture is being added. While the place could be a bit cleaner in some areas and the laundry area needs improvement, it is acknowledged that the motel is not in a super bad area. The wifi can be slow. Overall, it is a nice motel, highly recommended for the price and location, especially for those who do not require a lot of frill for short stays. Many guests state they would definitely stay here again.
i was nervous about staying in a motel in Seattle, but this one was actually quite good! It’s not in a super bad area and the guy at the front desk is lovely and very welcoming. The rooms are fine just like your classic motel, but the beds are comfy! Would definitely stay here again.
