MarQueen Mistake
Our stay at the Marqueen Hotel was depressing and it was kind of our fault.  We had a wedding in Seattle and were looking forward to some city time.  Some family members booked at the Marriott.  Then a niece said she booked the Marqueen as it was cheaper and had free parking.  So, everyone changed reservations. 
If you arrive at this hotel by car, be advised it is on a busy one-way street.  There is valet parking only with two spots out front to leave your car.  You are allowed to return to your car escorted by the valet.
On arrival in the musty smelling lobby, we were told by the very snippy desk clerk that the hotel did not offer free parking but we could self park three blocks away.  She acted like we were trying to cheat her but it was our mistake and the web site says 'fee charged'.  Then she says our room is on the second floor, up the stairs.  They have no elevator.  (Not on the website)  This was OK for us but in our group we have a heart patient and an arthritic.  I mentioned this to the clerk.  She took it to mean we were refusing the second floor and would put us on the first floor with our group.  We  later found out everyone else was on the second floor.
At this point, I would have changed hotels were we alone.  Because everyone was there, we stayed.
The room was strange.  It was dark with a very small bathroom with no bathroom fan; odd little kitchen with a large fridge, a microwave, dishes but no cooking utensils; poor TV; a scary closet; and a view of a muraled brick wall 4 feet away.  The bed was OK but not good enough to make up for the rest.  You could have clean towels if you left your towels on the floor but clean sheets were not an option.
The location of the hotel is good considering Seattle's good bus system. Breakfast was Super 8ish with good coffee (it is Seattle). There was no place for a group of six people to congregate.
It was depressing to be stuck here for three nights of my vacation but we were with our family and made the best of it.  I just would like to help save someone else's trip.
