Top Central Tacoma Hotel Reviews

Hotel Interurban Seattle Airport SeaTac

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived super late but I called to alert them and they were accommodating. However, we arrived to no one to check us in. Thankfully security was able to find someone for us. The lady wasn’t the friendliest but checkin was pretty quick. The room was nice and clean and the property was well maintained. Breakfast was also really good. We would definitely stay again."
