Very disapointing
Stayed here Nov. 2012 with 3 other couples. We have stayed in this area of d/t Seattle as well as in a few Seattle suburbs many times at different hotels and this is by far the worst one yet. We arrived shortly after check in time to find that the valet parking was full, that we would have to park ourselves and that we would not receive the discount on parking we were promised. We then were sent to a room where the door was ajar and the bed was disheveled along with stains on the linens. I went back to the front desk where the attendent tried to excuse herself by stating she noticed on the computer after she had set us up in that room that it was not prepared. This also happened to one of the other couples we were staying with. We proceeded to the second room offered and found the bed to be made, but with dirty linens and a crusty blanket. When I called to speak to a manager I was told that there wouldnt be one in until after 11am the following day and what time was I planning on checking out. I stated that "11am is your check out time isnt it??" To which the front desk person said "oh yes it is, but we can arrange a later check out if you need it". I requested that housekeeping come and change the linens and that I would like to speak to a manager asap. Housekeeping was prompt and polite. The mattress in the room feels 100 years old and the "flat screen tv" looks like a relic from the 80s (did they even have flat screens in the 80s???). As far as the "updated boutique hotel" goes, it looks like lick and promise was done to the place and a downtown hotel price tag given to a borderline rooming house/hostel quality inn. It smells old and musty, is dark and dreary, and honestly the service is subpar. The pictures on the website are misleading. Aside from location and the free wine hour between 5-6, this place isnt worth your money. I would just say, spend a few extra bucks and stay somewhere nicer, it is worth it.
