Mayflower Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"great location in downtown seattle- short walking distance to pike place market and so many other shops and restaurants! staff was very kind and extremely accommodating- was able check into my room early. if my room wasn’t available, they still had a place to store my luggage until it was. lovely experience, can’t wait to come back"

Level Seattle Downtown - South Lake Union

8/10 Good

"Incredible stay. Loved all of the amenities (didn’t even get to try everything there was so much offered). My kids had a blast staying up until 1a in the gym and music room. Only reason 4 stars because the pictures suggested it was another room (additional bathroom/bigger space) and the sauna/steam rooms were broken but no notice. I will definitely be back to experience it again however. "

citizenM Seattle South Lake Union

6/10 Okay

"Room was clean but very small. On my 3rd night, I arrived back late after helping my son move and was very tired. The key would not open my door and all the elctricity was out in my room. Therefore, I had to wait over an hour for the staff to evaluate the situation and then I had to switch rooms in the dark. It was inconvenient."
