Fine for UW & Harborview access
Pros:

Spouse is possible heart transplant recipient. Hotel is across street from free shuttle to UW Medical Center and Harborview Medical Center. Hotel welcomes you with a free beverage and Pineapple shortbread cookie. Room has a free reusable metal water bottle, filled, that can be refilled downstairs. Room has Keurig coffee pot so you can bring your own K-pods if desired. Friendly, helpful staff. Outdoor swimming pool (when in season). They've done a nice job of trying to modernize an older bldg. No family breakfast room so bring your own food (MW, sm fridge w/sm freezer in room). Large breakfast & lunch restaurant right next door. One dinner restaurant within close and safe walking distance for when it gets dark (Little Duck - Chinese/Peking food, not Americanized Chinese dishes. Small but delightful with "grandpa" and his many years cooking experience doing the cooking, with some of his special seasoning on the potatoes. Grandson was our host and waiter.). Overall, it's about the only hotel that's somewhat reasonable in prices, but could be expensive if you're doing a medical run for many days.

Cons:

It does not offer a free family room breakfast so you have to bring your own food. Each bed has 2 duvets as the "top sheet & blanket" that doesn't fit the entire bed, only half and the instructions were very confusing. Absolutely hated it; we are not European visitors! It's also so puffy that it's difficult to use the bed for placing items on it. Towel bar in the outer sink area was way too low to hang any towel or washcloth without it draping over a woman's cosmetic bags or toiletries. Parking was $25+3 taxes PER DAY; what's with THAT?! Only 1 dinner restaurant (Little Duck) within close and safe walking distance for when it gets dark.

Pros:

.I thought the price was fair/reasonable and the hotel provided a nice big umbrella to keep me dry on my walk around

Cons:

I didnt love the two smaller comforter set up on the bed. But more importantly, the coffee they provided was among the worst I've ever had.

Comfortable, nice furnishings, but not too fancy, helpful and friendly staff.
Pros:

Very comfortable bed and I like the twin duvets. Central to our family and friends visiting and we have a longtime association with the UW. I was pleased to find out they would let us bring our cats, although we did not do that on this visit.

Cons:

Refrigerator could have been colder, even though we turned it to maximum setting. Parking lot is challenging with many narrow spaces. We have and use a disability permit and sometimes some of those were taken by cars with no visible permit that we could see.

교통이 편리한 위치와 물과 음료를 무료로 제공해주는 친절함에 적극 축전합니다.
Pros:

숙소에서 무료로 물과 커피캡슐을 주어서 정말 유용했습니다. 지하철과 버스에서 가까워서 시내에 다니기 참 편리했습니다. 가까운 곳에 트레이더스조와 마트가 있어서 편리했습니다. 체크아웃하면서 신발을 잊어버리고 두고왔는데 잘 보관해주셔서 정말 감사했습니다. 여러가지고 장점이 많았던 숙소를 강력하게 추천합니다!!!

Cons:

없습니다
