Renaissance Seattle Hotel

8/10 Good

"The property was very clean and they let me check in early which was nice"

The Arctic Club Seattle

8/10 Good

"Nice room, great location in town and convenient restaurant and cool bar downstairs. The breakfast was lovely. Our room had a view of some kind of brown dome in an inner courtyard that made the room dark. I understand that what view you get is luck of the draw, and we unfortunately got a lemon this time. However, the windows were filthy. It was on the outside of the window and looked like something that would be a lot of work to get clean, so maybe that is why they didn't clean them. But for the amount of money they charge, they needed to at least have clean windows. I almost didn't find the coffee. It is hidden inside a piece of furniture. But I'm glad I found it as it is a lovely coffee press and a nice perk. Room layout is a little quirky and we had to put our luggage in the bathroom to put it on a luggage rack opened up because it would have been in the way in any other part of the room. This place is eclectic and hip and a nice alternative to cookie cutter hotels but I am not sure I would stay again. Maybe if we had a clean window some sunlight coming in."
