I will start off with the good. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful and this includes everyone from the front desk to the bellman to the cleaning people. They were all nice and friendly. We were on an upper level with an amazing view of the space needle. The hotel is located half way between the space needle and Pikes Place. It is very walkable distance to both and the area appeared to be relatively safe. We were out until 11:30 and did run into any problems. We received a free American breakfast with our stay and the food was good. The scones were amazing!
Now for the bad. The room has seen better days. The carpet was stained. The floor boards were screaming for a fresh coat of paint. The decor was early 80's. The TV was a tube TV from the mid 90's. The corners and edges of the wood furniture were beaten up. Just not a very nice room. It was clean, just old. I would like to think the carpet was clean and just stained, but there is really no telling. I decided to leave my sandal on the while time I was there.
The Warwick was supposed to have completed the remodel of all, but the lower floors, but the room we had was on of the "classic" rooms. Their website even states the "classic" rooms are located on the lower floors, but I assure you we had a "classic" (AKA rundown) room and it was on the 19th floor.
We only stayed there for one night, so we just dealt with the room that reminded us of a roadside lodge.
With this said, I cant emphasize how nice the staff was. That is the reason the Warwick received a 3 and not a 2. If were to stay here again, I would be sure to sacrifice the view for a remodeled room. The room was $200, not bad for a remodeled room in downtown Seattle, but over priced for a "classic" room
