I had a wonderful stay at this upscale hotel right in the heart of Seattle. The location was absolutely ideal for exploring local attractions like Pike Place Market and the waterfront, making it super convenient. The room was spacious and elegantly furnished, contributing to a nice, relaxing atmosphere. However, I did encounter a few hiccups during my stay—most notably, the service regarding the mini bar and a noisy street that made it less than perfect. Overall, a lovely experience, but not without its flaws.
