I needed a place to stay on semi-short notice and found Green Tortoise Hostel online. I showed up early and they let me store my bag without a problem. The rooms are clean and nice, the kitchen and breakfast in the morning are awesome, and the other travelers are always interesting. The bathrooms are shared but are individual so you have it to yourself while you use it. The lockers are spacious and if you don't have a lock you can rent one for $2 or keep it for $5 and it's cute and Green Tortoise branded so I kept mine as a souvenir. This place is literally right on Pike Place Market in the middle of everything downtown and you can see the neon signs from the living room. It's also one block from the train station. If I had any advice I'd say bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper because the street/market noise is a bit loud at night but not awful. All in all, I don't know why you'd stay anywhere else. This place is awesome.
