Great location, average amenities.
This hotel has a great location. The first thing I noticed when I drove up was a backed up valet area. The road that leads to the entrance is very busy and I had to drive around the block and I ended up parking in the back alley to get to the hotel. When I walked up to the hotel, the doorman (hotel employee who had been previously helping another guest) looked at me like I was a stray. I had my bags and was obviously a guest, but he never acknowledged or greeted me.
The lobby was a bit busy and the employees behind the counter seemed to be doing a good job getting the other guests checked in. When it was time for me to check in, everything went as smooth as I could expect. They were quick and polite.
The room: Average at best. There was no microwave. I was originally booked for a room with a double bed but when I arrived there was just one. This was a problem as I was on business and was to be sharing the room with a co-worker. When we got to the room it was an awkward situation, we both stared at the bed with little flashbacks of "Trains, Planes and Automobiles" entering our minds. There was no way we were going to share the bed. The front desk said they were booked full and could not change our room. They did however bring in a roll-a-way bed. The roll-a-way bed was horrible and should be outlawed as a torture device: water boarding would have been more pleasant! The mattress was worn out, there was a metal bar that protruded upward and hit about mid spine. On a good note, the main bed was nice. I have a friend who works in the pest control business and I know what to look for when it comes to bed bugs and I am happy to report that my room was bed bug free!
The view of the room was amazing: the Space needle was awesome.
The breakfast was about par for a lower end hotel breakfast. The eggs were rubbery and tasteless, the sausage was bland and the coffee was undrinkable. Seriously, your in Seattle: a city that is known for great coffee. You would think the hotel would offer something better than the coffee that tasted like instant Sanka. 
The room was priced at $225 and all I can say is your paying for the location and not the hotel. I travel a lot and in most other locations this hotel would be in the $75-115 range.
Sadly, this will be my last time visiting this hotel: I will see what the other hotels have to offer as most others in the area are priced the same.
Bottom line: clean hotel, awesome location and below average amenities and food for a higher than average price.
