"The history of the hotel is really interesting and was evident in the furnishings which, while worn, were good quality. The restaurant was also convenient and beautifully decorated albeit a bit pricey. The location was the real draw- between the light rail and Pike Place, it was a great spot to be for a short visit. If I were staying longer and had more time in the hotel room itself, I would probably find somewhere newer as the rooms definitely need some upgrades to the carpets and bathrooms."
