Fodor's Review:
If your mind's-eye picture of a classic bed-and-breakfast includes antique daybeds, Oriental rugs, and a grand dining room table draped in a lace-edged tablecloth, look no further. The 11th Avenue Inn plays this role perfectly. There are Victorian touches at every turn, but there's nothing chockablock or cluttered about the place: owner David Williams has impeccable taste, and even the small den that holds two public computers and stacks of travel guides, brochures, and laminated menus from the best local restaurants is thoughtfully arranged and appointed. Modestly sized guest rooms are on two floors. The second floor has five rooms; the Citrine is our favorite for its regal antique headboard, but the Opal is a very close second because of the amount of light it gets. The Emerald and Ruby rooms share a bathroom that has a cute green claw-foot tub. The third floor has three rooms, which are closer together but bigger than those on the second floor. They have skylights, and the Garnet and Topaz rooms have window seats from which you can get glimpses of the skyline. A full breakfast is served in the elegant dining room, which is the showpiece of the house. Don't worry about using the wrong fork, though -- despite its formal appearance, the inn is a warm and laid-back place, a great ambassador of Seattle hospitality.
