Bed was very uncomfortable.

The bed was very uncomfortable and when we entered the room all the pillows were on the floor. Not a great first impression. The bar area was right under our room so there was quite a bit of noise from that and we could hear people talking from the lobby in our room with the door closed. For the money I would not recommend.

Pros: The room was lovely!
Cons: Our view was a parking lot.
Location: It is close to Western Washington University.
We loved the room - the jacuzzi tub and the fireplace added extra comforts. Staff was attentive. We did not get a room with a view (although I thought that is what I chose on Travelocity), but the restaurant provided great views of the waterfront.

Amazing Welcome Home

I stayed here after a prolonged absence from my husband. I had limited funds available but that didn't matter to the staff they still treated me and my husband like a million bucks. \nWhen I checked in the staff asked me some questions to get me fitted to just the right room, which ended up being an ocean view room at a discount. I had forgotten some essentials and they were amazingly fast in getting them to me at no extra charge. \nMy husband had no knowledge of which room I was in and had to find me. The staff were very obliging and helped him through the hunt for my room and ultimately to me. \nAfter our stay at this discounted rate the front desk manager was so kind while I was checking out and even gave me a $15 package of bath salts as a welcome home gift since I had been on extended stay out of town. \nThis experience was amazing and I would recommend it for anyone who wants a little adventure in their love life. The staff is more than willing to assist to make sure your stay is more the amazing in every way.

Over Rated, Over Priced, Under Trained

My wife and I stayed here one night. Staff was terrible. Took 3 of them forever to register us. Dirty dishes in hallways in late afternoon. Surly staff making snide remarks in parking garage. Large, badly designed rooms.

WE liked the large room with a fireplace and the size of nite tables plus the dining room with a beautiful view. However, we found this lovely Hotel needing a good cleaning. For example, the shower stall had moulding around the ceiling and between the tiles, in fact the room appears scruffy. The wine classes were left with lipstick on them. The Room Maid did not bother to place cleaner glasses. The elevator was really scruffy and construction debrises on the carpet.
