Hotel Murano
Nice lobby but that’s is all the good I can say . The room has the bathroom fan falling from the ceiling , the faucet not attached , and the mirror had a big crack .. worst part of the stay was the noise from above us that was all night long ! Will not stay here again

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites SeaTac by IHG
We stayed in Room 307, and if you are sensitive to noise, you might ask to stay on the top floor. You could hear every footfall and dropped object through the ceiling. The room was very clean though! Excellent housekeeping. The breakfast was not great either: sad potatoes and glum omelettes.

Best Western Seattle Airport Hotel
Because of an early flight, we didn’t have the chance to experience the hot meal breakfast like eggs, bacon or sausage. We were there at 4:38 am they only have muffins, breads, cereals and some small packages for hot cereals. And they have coffees ready.

Yes shops near by. Stayed at your location because it was easy access to St. Jospeh's Hospital . Staff was very courteous and kind. I felt very safe with the underground parking situation. I thought the breakfast was very good and I enjoyed Keurig machine with many coffees and lattes. we will recommend ...
