Top Ruston Hotel Reviews

Coast Gateway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We always stay here prior to early morning flights from SeaTac"

Motel 6 Seattle, WA - South

8/10 Good

"It’s a go. Clean and cheap. Nothing more. TV and toilet didn’t work. Microwave and refrigerator did. Cheapest property I could find close to Seattle with a 8.0 (?) rating. There is a washer, dryer and ice machine for guest use. So that’s pretty convenient. Easy on/off freeway. Convenience store and coffee kiosk close by. I’m a real basic traveler, especially when it comes to lodging. It worked for me. I would stay here again. Clean and cheap."

Hilton Seattle Airport & Conference Center

8/10 Good

"This hotel is within walking distance to the Seattle airport. Check-in was pleasant, although they were unable to provide a printed copy of my room charges upon check-out as ‘ I didn’t have any additional hotel charges and I had paid in advance’. Strange reasoning to me but whatever. Rooms were clean with comfortable beds and coffee services. The hotel doesn’t provide water in the room or room service but one can go to the lobby bar and pick up food. The burger and fries were good."
