Terrie from United States – 4 May 2025 (9/10)
Just got off a cruise ship, and was greeted happily, and the host was able to check in my baggage before my room was available, which gave me time to explore Seattle. I got back early and my room was ready. Nice spacious room with a very comfy bed. Breakfast had a very well stocked variety of breakfast foods and juices. Very fresh. Check out was a breeze.
What could be improved: The lighting in the bathroom was not bright enough, and the table and chairs in the room were a bit outdated. The lobby seemed a little dark, but when I stepped off the elevator onto my floor, everything was nice and bright.Seng from Australia – 26 April 2025 (9/10)
Clean and convenient
