Location is Great, good thing because you'll spend a lot of time wiating on elevators
We were lucky enough to get a reservation at this hotel using hotwire for very little cost. Having never used hotwire, I was nervous about how we would be treated and the kind of room we would get, but front desk staff was very welcoming and we had a view of the needle from our room (which still, granted, likely wasn't one of their better floors). There was construction going on across the street right outside our window but we were never bothered by any noise coming from it. I read the warnings about the elevators and thought, how annoying can slow elevators really be? Well, the answer is quite. Don't forget anything in your room, or you'll have wasted a lot of time trying to get back up/down again. We dealt with two concierges, one was abrupt as a previous poster mentioned, while the 2nd was quite friendly and helpful. Overall, and especially due to the excellent location of the hotel and the low price we paid, we enjoyed our stay. Had I booked through the hotel website and paid full price, I might have been somewhat disappointed. The location makes up for a lot though...
