3. We had a an executive suite connecting to a double/double ($700 plus per night pre-tax) PLUS another double/double for our nanny (ANOTHER $320ish per night pre-tax) The service was terrible, with one little thing snowballing into the next and here they are:First, the hotel is on a busy downtown street with no pull-off area to unload a vehicle, I had to run inside to track down the valet during Seattle rush hour while my hubby and remaining family got honked at while idling in front of the hotel.

5. - that the desk staff weren't terribly knowledgeable about the less tourist-y attractions in the area (we were doing more of an 'off the beaten path' focus)Overall, it was a refreshing change to stay somewhere with personality and charm, rather than the usual cookie cutter modern hotel - definitely worth the extra $20-30.

9. (2) terrible View - our room looked out directly into the next building (3) Room had a musty feelingOverall - I liked this hotel but expected more and felt it was not worth the money we spent ($400 night + tax for the two bedroom suite).

10. It was huge, but there was not much furniture in it, the bathroom was old, and the air conditioning system made terrible noises.
