Great value for location and quality.
It is hard for me not to give this 5 stars however rating is all relative. It is by no means on the calibur of a Ritz and there are surely nicer hotels in Seattle, however for the price point and location just on the outskirts of downtown, I highly recomend this hotel.
My boyfriend and I were able to make the walk to Pike's Market numberous times as it only took about 10-12 min to get there on foot. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the shuttle service was a definite plus. It picked us and our luggage up and dropped us off at the Light Link (Seattle's public transportation) about .7 miles away from the hotel. An easy walk and great area for shopping but not ideal if you have baggage. 
The rooms are not the most spacious but they did well with the layout, incorporating everything you could need, especially if you are going to be out exploring most of the days as we were. 
The only thing is that I would not suggest walking home in the dark by yourself especially if you are not familiar with this city. The walk back on our first night from downtown was a bit sketchy on the unpopulated side streets. Only needed to take that route once. 
I would definitely stay here again. Oh and the late night, fresh out the oven cookies are a definite plus!
