Fairfield Inn by Marriott Issaquah

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were great and friendly. Room was spacious with every amenity provided. A full kitchen and living room for full convenience and comfort is perfect for extended stays too. Outdoor pool available, weather permitting. Property is clean and well-kept. Especially liked despite being near office parks, the setting was park-like and surrounded by trees.
