Honestly, we have no complaints about our stay, other than the inconvenience of the renovation going on. It affected the elevators, lobby and parking lot the most. But we loved the rooms, staff, and location!

Room was great, staff was friendly, construction not so much. Hubby was having surgery and ended up staying in the hospital an extra day because he couldn't be around the sheetrock dust.

The renovations are wonderful! The front desk staff was knowledgeable, kind and helpful! The rooms are lovely. Conveniently located to some great sites like the space needle, climate pledge and pike market.
Only complaint was booking a room with a fold out sofa which was no longer available as they had renovated.

There was nothing about construction happening until it was too late to cancel. The floor I was on embarking I paid extra for parking and there was no parking available to me. Staff were very helpful and pleasant to work with. One helped me find a sketchy parking spot that wasn’t a parking spot but made it work for me.
