The location is excellent, directly next to Pike Place Market and the world's first Starbucks. It's a serviced apartment with a kitchen and shared laundry room. The appliances are dated, but the location is a minor issue. There's no central air conditioning, but instead a desktop fan with cooling ducts running directly out of the windows, making it impossible to close them. Traffic noise from the street is also quite loud at night. The best feature is the self-service check-in system, where the hotel sends text messages with the main door, room door, and elevator codes. Since I booked through Ctrip, I didn't receive any text messages, which meant I didn't know what to enter when entering the main door. I pulled hard on the door several times, causing misunderstanding and even annoyance from the front desk staff. There's no parking available, but nearby parking lots are plentiful but very expensive. Overnight parking costs between $36 and $72. No meals are served.
