Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, WA
Breakfast was great. We booked for the pool. It was a tad too cold to swim in and no hot tub. Staff was nice. Room was clean

Coast Gateway Hotel
Definitely a little dated, but it seemed clean. I thought perhaps it would be very noisy being right next to the airport, and having the elevated train right behind it. But we slept fine. The AC works. Breakfast was not particularly inspiring.
