Hotel on top of the hill
If you're not in condition to walk up a hill then this hotel will not be for you. The hotel is located blocks from the shopping area but it requires a good hike up the hill returning to the hotel that will discourage you to leave in the first place. The hill is quite steep. Also, walking up the hill on Madison there is an abandon building next to the hotel that had some homeless sleeping outside that you may pass by.
Hotel service was good. They allowed me to check-in at 10am which was very nice. I like the lobby atmosphere with a lounge / modern feel to it. There is also a bar on the top of the hotel which overlook much of downtown Seattle, but unfortunately it was closed on Sunday night. 
The room was comfortable and quiet even though our room overlooked the I-5 Freeway. Our room was quiet large and the bed was very comfortable. 
We took the Light Rail to / from the airport. The station is University. 
No pool in the hotel.
