Everything in Seattle near my event was booked, and to make things worse, this room was not cheap. The mattress was horrible it had a significant dent/ sink-In hole. Woke up with back pain. The room smelled of smoke, I thought, although my husband thought it smelled like feet. I Would not stay here again. Several of the guest looked sketchy. Check out counter was still closed at 08:30am the next day when trying to check out.

All around TERRIBLE AND UNSAFE

Not only did our AC not work, but it smelled AWFUL. I think I am due a refund for the AC not working. The bathroom was filthy. And guests were drinking and smoking outside all night. And the poor girl at the front desk had a customer coming in with a knife. Severely unsafe. I am still baffled by this stay.

The rooms lack cleanliness. The hotel room / bathroom smelt of mold and urine. There are no amenities. The beds were small and very uncomfortable. There were strange stains throughout the walls and definitely could use some cleaning. The room did not look nor feel clean. I am pleased though that the house keeper nearby came with no hesitation to give our room another cleaning. Towels provided were extremely small meant more for a child. Our stay was 2 nights and 3 days and asked for room service which we did not get. Will not be coming back.

DO NOT STAY HERE. We paid almost $400 for a room at this property because all rooms were sold out everywhere else. When we got to our room it reeked of smoke. There are two cigarette ash trays in the room. I called the front desk and informed them that we should be in a none smoking room. She said our reservation was for a smoking room which was not true. They couldn’t switch room for us because they were sold out. If I didn’t have my kids with me, I would have left and slept in my car. The sheets were stained and there were no hair dryer, shampoo/conditioner-just a little bar of soap. Terrible experience. If you can help it, find another place to stay.

The floor in my room turned my feet almost black from walking barefoot the whole time. They DO NOT MOP! No freezer. A/C unit was totally busted open & barely blew any air. Pool & hot tub were still not open. Microwave did not spin.
