We recently stayed at the University Inn in Seattle and had a decent experience overall. It's a dog-friendly hotel, which was a big plus for us—our pups were welcomed with treats and a pup cups, which was a sweet touch. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the beds were surprisingly comfortable.
That said, the hotel itself is quite small and felt a bit cramped compared to other Staypineapple properties we've visited. It’s definitely not the best Staypineapple we've stayed at, but also far from the worst hotel experience we've had. If you're traveling with pets and looking for a place in the U District, it’s a solid, if modest, choice.
