Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was spacious with a full kitchen and full-size fridge. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean, and we enjoyed our two-night stay. Plenty of dining options in the area and a fairly quick drive to UW. The pool and hot tub looked nice, but we didn't use these. The breakfast was average; did have eggs and waffles, so no real complaints. We would stay again when in the area.

Good rooms, sub par breakfast, pricy

It was a nice enough place, roomy and comfortable beds, clean and plenty of free parking in a safe area. For the price though breakfast was pretty weak.

Here for a 2 night stay. Staff was rude the moment I checked in.. as if me checking in was an interruption. There was smell of weed in the lobby hallway up to the room. The room was however nice and clean. 2nd night here... there was a party in the conference room on the 1st floor right below our room.... they stated there wasnt a quiet time and the party was booked until midnight. Stated that if i left at 1030pm i wouldnt be charged although i already paid thru Expedia. Terrible answer
