If you know Aurora, you know that it can be a sketchy area, but it also is convenient for launching to several of the activities I go to this city for. With that said, this property belies the neighborhood in which it sits. The rooms are recently renovated and clean, the parking lot is isolated from the road by a nice iron gate and the staff are all very friendly and responsive with requests. The rates are great for the service you get and I will make Best Motel my regular stop when I visit Seattle from now on.

Staff was great, but this property is not very nice. I was moved from one of the older rooms that had barely 1 plug svailable to one of the newer ones. I just didnt think the place was worth the price

Solid Choice!
Excellent value at a great budget! Minimal but clean comfortable rooms with clean bedding and parking included! Very friendly staff at checkin and upfront with their policies and rules. It looks like a family runs the motel and they really care about their customers and run a good business. The room has a fridge and coffee maker. The walk in shower is very spacious. The gate for the parking lot really makes a difference in feeling safe and that my vehicle is secure. Don’t let the location deter you, this business earns their quality! Just what i needed to visit Seattle without breaking the bank!

The hotel room was incredibly cute. The staff was amazing. On arrival we were greated with a very warm welcome, and given the best restaurant recommendations. The property has round the clock surveillance as well as a security gate that closed after 9pm which made feel at ease. The price was also tremendous! I would recommend this hotel to anyone!!! 😁

I arrived WAYYY past check in hours (5 AM) after a long drive. The office was closed, but I gave the owner a call and she happily opened the doors and welcomed me in so I could sleep for a few hours before continuing my road trip. AMAZING service, gated parking lot, and a really clean room with a big bed. Would totally stay here again. Cheap price doesn’t always mean cheap service ❤️
