Hotel Max : the hip way to stay while you explore Seattle
Pros:

The Hotel Max is a hip hotel in the Denny Triangle/Westlake neighborhood of Seattle. The rooms are cosy, yet well apointed and very clean with nice bathrooms. The lobby is hip and comfortable, where you will also find the daily 5pm Happy Hour, icluded with your stay. The staff were all very helpful & inviting. Being close to transit is an extremely important factor in booking a hotel for me and the Max is great in that aspect (Link Light Rail, Monorail & Streetcar are all within a few blocks). As far as value, I got a great deal booking directly through the hotel.
