First time to Seattle and I had to balance where I stayed with my budget I was willing to stay on a Holiday Weekend.. in fact Bumbershoot weekend and booking at the last minute so...
The hotel is not within walking distance of Pike Place Market however they do offer a shuttle that will take you there and pick you up.. wish I knew I needed to book the shuttle the evening before.. BUT.. I did make use of the shuttle returning from Pike Place-- which was GREAT ! The desk clerk kindly offered to upgrade my double bed no-smoking room to a room with a view and a king bed.. which was great ! But... the first night we walked in and the room reeked of cigarettes... however we did not realize how bad, and 2. we were tired from flying lack of food etc.. so we decided to tough it out the first night thinking we might be over- reacting.. But when we came back to the room after being out the second day we HAD to say something .. and the WONDERFUL EMPLOYEES, graciously moved us to another room without question. SO second night was a much better night! Overall the room was comfortable, older property nicely redone.. our view room had coffee maker, room for our bags, closet w. hangers, extra pillows and comforter so all in all pretty good... The price for the first night was a bit on the higher side but I think all rooms in Seattle Saturday night of Bumbershoot weekend went up.. I would stay again but I would be sure and reserve the shuttle to get around and if the room was not ok upon walking in I would immediately go change it... Last but not least-seemed odd that the Coffee Shop which is part of the Property was not open late...
