I don’t know if we’ll stay there again.
Pros:

Room was quiet and beds were comfortable

Cons:

The flow of the shower head was too strong and wasn’t adjustable and the shampoo/conditioner/body wash containers were mounted right under the shower head - these should be on the opposite wall of the shower. They were hard to get to without sticking your head under the shower head. The doors (interior and exterior) were all banged up with paint missing.

For the price that I paid, I could have gone to a hotel that was around the corner and may have received cleaner sheets.
Pros:

Location was great. Close to what I needed to get buisness done.

Cons:

Room was not very clean. The bedsheets had a very foul odor to them and the pillows I had where just rolled up sheets with a pillow cover over them. I had to ask for a new pillow but was met with the same outcome.

Was so glad when we checked out.
Pros:

Red Lion was fantastic twenty years ago it was THE place to stay. What happened to it I dunno but boy what a disappointment in Seattle. No restaurant and included breakfast the toaster didn’t work and breakfast was cello wrapped cheap energy bars. No housekeeping…fresh towels required a request at the front desk and linens were not changed in four nights unless you requested at the front desk.

Cons:

Poorly maintained and no services whatsoever. What happened to RedLion??????

Go somewhere else
Pros:

The bed was comfortable

Cons:

I’m so dirty mold in the bathroom paint peeling in the hallway dirty carpets in the hallway. Total rundown total dove in a very high-end area of Washington state charge for early check in when the room was ready. I was two hours early pay for parking which would be fine if the rooms were nice curtains had holes in them absolute dump.

Just Ok but great location!
Pros:

The location of the hotel is nearby or walkable to areas of shopping and food. There are ample parking too.

Cons:

Breakfast was horrible and I wish that it could be something good even if its small variety. All pastries are not good and even the butter and spread. I feel sad of wasting them. I find most of what they have are unhealthy. If you are bringing kids, I'd say bring them their food or go somewhere else. Our heater/airconditioning was not working, We were told to wait before it adjusts but it never worked. We were tired and just let it be.

I had higher expectations for cleanliness the dirty wash cloth being the problem for me.
Pros:

The staff was kind and helpful when we asked questions.

Cons:

Unfortunately our room wasnt clean. There were hairs from a previous guest in several places in the bathroom as well as a dirty hand towel behind the toilet. I saw it shortly after we arrived and we hadnt unpacked I used the toilet right away after arrival. which is when I noticed all the hair and while cleaning it up noticed the dirty wash cloth.
