What guests think

At Rodeway Inn Seatac, travellers consistently trade a low price and walkable airport location for serious drawbacks, including widespread cleanliness problems (roaches, stains, odors), a very worn, dated property, and an airport shuttle that only runs limited hours.

Service is mixed—some note friendly staff, while others report rude interactions, slow responses, and hassles with a $100 deposit and refunds. Rooms are basic and noisy at times, with unreliable Wi‑Fi and many maintenance issues; a number of guests still found beds acceptable for a short sleep. The location near the light rail and terminal is convenient, but several guests felt the surrounding area and interior common spaces were uncomfortable. Expect a very bare‑bones, airport‑convenient stay.

I was only there for 10 hours - the room had a bad odor requiring window to stay open. Roaches were crawling around. Shower was fine, water was warm. Slept on top of covers but bed seemed fine. Minimal TV options. Shuttle doesn’t run until 7am - walkable from airport.

It's a 3 floor facility with no elevators. I'm disabled but managed to get my luggage to the 2nd floor. The staff made zero effort or even offer to assist me. The facility hasn't had a facelift in a decade at least! Very runfown and uncared for. We didn't risk the bed linens at all! In a time crunch, couldn't relocate.

Just one night transiting through SeaTac. Is an older property, but price was very good. It is indeed very close to the airport. The airport is walkable if weather is good, although you can call for/book a shuttle ride between airport and hotel. Shuttle only runs between 7am and 7pm.

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.

The room was infested with cockroaches everywhere. Right as I checked in and came to the room, two cockroaches were in the sink. Several were in/around the trash can, others were around the toilet… they were everywhere. There should never be conditions like that for a guest to stay in. The hotel’s location is ideal only for people arriving at the airport late at night, however the cleanliness should have this hotel closed down, it is disgustingly terrible!

You get what you pay for - it's an inexpensive motel, walking distance to the airport. The staff is friendly.

In general, the property is dated and showing signs of wear and tear, but the bathrooms really need. work. My bathroom had clogged drain in shower and broken shower knob making it very hard to use the shower. Normally I'd ask to change the room but it was airport accommodation and we were there for 6h so there was no time. A good thing is that you can walk to the airport even with a lot of luggage.

Beds were comfortable and appeared very clean, even though the motel and rooms were pretty old and grimy. Only one bath towel provided. And AC was effective but really noisy. So - if you are staying at a time when no AC is needed, and you come in, sleep and keep your eyes closed to the condition of the rest, then I can say that you can get a good nights sleep.

I guess it is what it is - an inexpensive place to lay your head. The rooms are “well worn”. The towels were actually really nice - clean and plush. The incidentals/damage “deposit” was annoying; $100 which I’m sure charged immediately to my card but isn’t returned for 5-10 business days. Maybe it’s necessary in that area but waiting that long to get a deposit back is just a scam in my opinion.

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 !!!!

Not somewhere I would want to bring my children. The outlets in the rooms wouldn’t even hold my chargers in it.

I have travelled around the world, staying in various places including top rated hotels and dormitories in the worst condition. Rodeway Inn is a cheap hotel so I accept some maintenance issues and dirtiness. But, it was clear that the room wasn't hoovered when I arrived. The towel had pubic hairs. The glass window had lots of smears of hand marks. The common area has the same level of dirtiness. When I checked in, I was asked to pay $100 for a deposit which will be refunded when I check out. They didn't. They explained to me it will take 7-10 business days to refund onto my credit card. I am worried that they don't refund to me at all. I saw some customers arguing about their refund issue. The customer service wasn't good either - unfriendly, they even didn't look at customers. Please help me if they don't refund the deposit to me. I cannot trust them!

READ READ READ 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.

Good: 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.

It is a place to crash after a late arrival or before an early flight. Our room was clean, I didn't notice any bad odor, beds were comfortable enough. We had a ground floor room facing the parking lot and airport, but the night was surprisingly quiet. Staff was nice and helpful. The snack machines only take cash, but there is also a 7eleven in walking distance that also has an atm. The coffee isn't half bad for a place like this, so great. Would definitely use it again for a night to crash. (Maybe not as a single woman, though. NOT because of the hotel or staff, but the area gives a slightly sketchy vibe.)

The floors and carpeting were really dirty, in need of being vacuumed. That was outside in the lobby and all on the staircase, and in the hallways. My room was fine, not too much to complain about. The bedding was adequate and the mattress slept comfortably. Intact pillows. I did not have a microwave in my room, but and there is one in the lobby for community usage. The AC/heating unit worked well. The room is pretty small, but I had what was needed. Decent working mini fridge. The blackout curtains kept it very dark in the room, which was great. I smelled other people‘s cooking out in the hallway, quite strongly. It wafted into my room, and was not very pleasant. I used air freshener to help diminish the odors. The daily rate was very affordable.

The checkin was good. My arrival was late due to a delayed airline flight, but the front desk was manned. 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
