Be aware that hotel parking is $45/night, and there isn't enough for all guests, so if it fills up, you'll need to find an alternative. We parked in a garage a block way that was $40 and charged per entrance/exit, so we just left our car there for our entire three-day, two-night stay in order to keep costs down. The hotel is in a wonderfully convenient location, with many destinations only a block or two away, and even Pike Place and the aquarium are only a half hour's walk. Our room was clean and both day and night staff were really nice. The laundry room detergent machine will take your money even if it's empty, and you'll have to go get some from the front desk. One of the washers eats an occasional quarter, but the dryers do a great job and our clothes were fully dry. The hall carpet is thick and does a great job dampening sound, but the doors cannot be shut quietly. There isn't enough sound dampening between floors, and we could hear our upstairs neighbors walking and talking. We never had long waits for the elevators, but the breakfast line was quite long, so guests will need to account for that. Our room was super clean and comfortable. Water pressure was a bit low, but I liked all the places to put our stuff. For the self-conscious folks, know that the gym is in front of a big, ground floor window next to a busy street and sidewalk.
