Great place to stay before our Alaskan cruise
Pros:

Rooms were clean. Common areas were clean and easy to use. Breakfasts were good; maybe could use some additional seating/tables. Location was wonderful; we walked everywhere. Check-in was easy and front desk clerks gave us some good recommendations for food and shopping and activities.

Cons:

Need more seating/tables for the breakfast crowds.

Pros:

Zimmer und Nähe zur Space Needle

Cons:

Als wir dort waren, war wegen umbaumaßnahmen die Küche geschlossen. Lunch Paket war wirklich nicht essbar. Haben aber das Geld wieder bekommen, deswegen nicht so schlimm.

Disappointing , for a popular chain motel to be run down in a peak period.
Pros:

Comfortable beds, great breakfast.

Cons:

Cold showers.One of the lifts weren't working and was getting repaired. Plumbers were trying to fix the problem.Was moved to another room which was also cold water . Was refunded 25% of the 1st night only.
