The room was fantastic—clean, modern, and stylish with great attention to detail. I loved how walkable everything was; I could easily grab a delicious lobster roll just a few blocks away and explore the neighborhood on foot. Public transit access is also super convenient. The only downside was parking—since there’s no on-site garage, you have to rely on valet service. Being located right on a busy street with traffic lights, it can be tricky to find space during peak times, and sometimes cars get turned away due to congestion. Still, the overall experience was excellent, and the location more than makes up for it.

The location couldn’t be better—right in the heart of downtown, steps away from Pioneer Square, shopping, dining, and major attractions. Walking to the waterfront or public transit was a breeze.
