物価が高いエリアなので、宿泊費は高いのですが、周囲の環境も込みで考えると良かったかと思います。
Pros:

ロケーションは安全なエリアでPike Place Marketにも徒歩5分と近く、また、Link Light TrainのWestlake駅から徒歩5分程度で、大変良かったです。5-6 pmに地ビールサービス(おかわり自由)はお値打ちでした。

Cons:

特にありません

A well located comfortable hotel
Pros:

Stayed at Hotel Max Seattle and had a comfortable stay overall. The downtown location is excellent and makes it easy to get around Seattle and explore nearby attractions.

The room was comfortable and reasonably spacious. We also appreciated the small things like complimentary water, gumballs in the lobby and also coffee was available throughout the day.

The hotel has a younger, modern vibe with music playing in the lobby, which gives it a different feel from more traditional hotels.

The only small drawback for us was that the corridors were quite dark and the room lighting felt a bit dim. Other than that, it was a comfortable stay and a good option for staying in downtown Seattle.

Cute Hotel with Great Staff
Pros:

The hotel is located walking distance to Pikes and the space needle. The hotel staff were all friendly and they have a beer happy hour from 5pm-6pm every night in the lobby. The rooms are small but if you’re just there to sleep and shower, it’s all you need.
