Mediocre
The coffee maker was broken. The room was recently renovated but you cannot completely mask the aged building. Overpowering perfume in the elevator. Not bad at all but cannot think of a reason why I'll come back....

Great Stay!
Wonderful experience; friendly & helpful staff - specially front desk personnel , great food - both bar and breakfast, clean and beautiful room. Valet parking is expensive but still worth it if you are exploring / shopping downtown Seattle.

8/10 Very good

I requested valet plug my electric car in. I found out later they plugged it into the slow charger, so I had challenges getting home. In room heat maxed out at 80 but it never got more than 69 degrees. The few times I called front desk, huge wait times. Nice hotel, the street people, drug use was out in open on surrounding streets
