Micro Bedroom

If you’re looking for a respectable hostel in the Seattle area, you’ve found it. This is a home away from home and everything is well thought out. The 7 day minimum creates a cool community vibe and keeps this place pretty unique. I’ve stayed in hostels throughout the world I can undoubtedly say this is one of the best hostels out there. It’s clean, safe, comfortable, and convenient. Public transportation is a few blocks away with a straight shot into Seattle on the 594 bus. You can also catch public transportation into the Olympic peninsula or happening downtown Tacoma. There’s a spanking new gym, food, pharmacy, and convenient stores all within a 5 minute walk. This is a chilled place where a relaxing nights sleep is almost always certain. Well worth a visit.

Just like any other hostel, you're not going to have too much privacy, but the curtain around the bed work very well to block out sound and light and the community here is social if you want it and will be fine if you're quiet yourself. The host is prompt and knowledgeable about the property, and the provided care package is perfect for travelers that forgot anything.

The hostel itself is quite nice on the inside, as the house has bee remodeled. You can tell the owners paid attention to a lot of little details (organization bins, comfortable blanket, free lock for lockers, privacy curtain on bed, etc) though the outside grounds could use some sprucing up. I stayed here for one night, though it appears that most guests stay for extended periods of time, making it feel less like a backpackers hostel and more like a communal house. If I were ever to stay in Tacoma again, I would return to Hidden sound. It's a great value.

This is a very sleek and modern hostel. The bathrooms are nicer than the ones I have at home, and the sleeping setup is very modern with curtains and lights. Very social environment too, probably because people aren’t coming and going so often. The 4 day minimum made me nervous initially but how I see how well it works. Fantastic place!

My son stayed here for a short period of time and he had nothing but very good things to say! He felt very secure as there were cameras everywhere. He said they gave him a gift basket with toiletries, laundry soap, and food which made his day. The staff was wonderful, very down to earth and personable. Very impressed, thank you Hidden Sound for giving my son a nice safe place to rest his head:)

I've had a two week stay here. Location is great as most essentials are within walking distance. A welcome box was given with some much needed amenities for the stay. The areas were clean and ambient music was playing all throughout for a relaxed atmosphere. Due to the requirements for staying, the other guests quickly became familiar and friendly because of the shared areas to interact. It really felt like the place was a home and was secure. Were I needing to stay in Tacoma again for an extended duration, I will choose this place again.

There is some unique experience in this hostel, for example when you arrive there is a nice surprise waiting for you in your bed, it was a nice surprise. This hostel is not really in a very tourist spot so the people staying there are not the same as the usual European hostel but everyone is nice and it’s private and safe. They have good utilities in the house for you to use. Also very cheap for the area it’s worthy to stay for a few days.
