โOne of the best hotels Iโve ever stayed in the states. Room was clean, sink was useful, air conditioner was functioning well. The highlight was the bathroom. Clean and new shower booth with full of hot water. The rooftop was great, and the garage was nice and safe with two elevevators directly connected to the lobby and each floor. Never stayed this like hotel in the states with this price.โ
โWe absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful hotel. The historical yet contemporary vibe made it feel special and unique. The daily rug in the elevator was our fave! The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating, and our room was lovely. Highly recommendโand weโll definitely be back!โ
โThe facilities are average, and staying in downtown Seattle for a few days is fine, but there is a problem.
A hidden fee (amenity fee) is charged daily. For a two-night stay, I was charged $57.74 with Tax. This fee is applied every day. While the hotel justifies this charge, citing services like internet access, Netflix streaming, and a welcome drink, I believe these should already be included in the standard hotel rate. These services are not exceptional enough to warrant an additional...
"pros:
- If coming from the airport, taking the link train and getting off at Symphony station is very close to the hotel.
- Located in downtown, so itโs convenient for both going to the convention center and sightseeing.
- Relatively affordable price.
cons:
- The slope on Seneca Street is quite steep. It was really tough pulling a suitcase from Symphony hall station to the hotel.
- If booking through a third party (e.g., Hotels.com), they hold a $200 INCIDENTAL charge. This is a policy, but there was no prior notice about this. -> Fortunately, it was refunded immediately after checkout.
- The Wi-Fi speed in the room was surprisingly slow. It was noticeably slower compared to other places like cafes or the convention center.
- The staff was unfriendly, especially the woman at the front desk in the afternoon. I asked if I could change rooms because the Wi-Fi speed was too slow for my work, and her response was, "Moving to a higher floor wonโt make the Wi-Fi faster." When did I ask to move to a higher floor? I donโt understand her attitude. To add, they didnโt change my room.
- In terms of room assignments, I noticed that the hotel tends to assign people of color to lower floors when using the elevator.
