Sandhill Gravel Pit

The hotel is about due for a remodel. The hotel staff was really nice.

Disappointed that we had to call housekeeping 3 days in a row to resolve the coffee maker not working. Eventually the manager removed the coffee maker from the sliding drawer and installed it on the desk. Poor design to have it on a low sliding drawer. The cable would stick snd drawer would not pill out. Cable was also erratic in providing power. Also wish we had 2 chairs in room. Staff at bar and in The George very friendly, provided very good service.

We stayed at this property specifically due to its proximity to the arena which was excellent and very walkable. The room was very good although a bit dated except for the bathroom which appeared to be remodeled. The staff was extremely professional and efficient despite a large group that was apparently checking in all at once. The one issue that we really had with this place was the parking situation. Every downtown Seattle hotel is going to struggle with parking and this property is no exception. The staff apparently emails instructions to park in their dedicated garage upon check in, (we didn't see that) but in any case we made it into the garage at just after 4pm and it was nearly full. The garage itself is very small and hard to navigate, I don't think a regular truck would have fit. Two elevators go from the garage to the guest rooms so they can have long wait times during check in and check out. When we did finally leave the next morning, the garage was even more packed as drivers just stopped parking in stalls and began parking in the driveways. That made for a very tight exit. Despite the stressful parking it was a good overall experience.
