If you’re looking at hostels in Seattle, you probably don’t want to stay at Second Home Hostels (more info). It says that it’s within walking distance from Seatac airport — but what they neglect to mention is that the airport is no where near downtown Seattle. You’re looking at a 30 minute ride on the light rail (for $2.50) or a cab ride (for $55) to get to the city from the airport.
