Watch out for the amenities...

We enjoyed our experience at...

Liked: The rooms are pricey but I enjoyed the extra benefits the rooms came with that were unexpected like the $15 credit to Ben Paris, 50% admission to SAM as well as other benefits. I enjoyed having restaurant/lounge in the same building. And when it was time to stroll the city, the location was great as it provided walking distance to many places I wanted to check out.
Disliked: I didn't know about the discount for parking if you book parking ahead of time. I couldn't find where to book parking. But regardless parking fees weren't too crazy and it was a short walk from and to the parking garage.

No tub, no view, no...

Liked: Bed was comfortable and accomodations clean.
Disliked: Listed as having bathtubs online, no bathtubs in any room. Restaurant and Bar were only open 4pm-8pm; I sat in bar with restaurant staff observing me at the bar, all the while saying nothing. Bartender emerged after 15 minutes and told me they were not open. Restaurant was disappointing due to inaccessibility due to operating hours and staff being rude. Room had a view of a brick wall 1 foot away.

Great Location and staff

Liked: The location was excellent. We were able to walk to many of our destinations. Recommend staying 6th floor or above with a water view. Otherwise may be looking at a parking
Disliked: The room is a bit small and not set up well. No closet and only a small area to hang maybe shirts. The TV is also in an awkward place. Unable to watch unless you lay on the bed sideways. Too much chlorine in the water.

Liked: Very clean and amazing location

Great decor and comfy beds,...

Liked: Loved the decor (very special wallpaper, leather accents on the room) and the top-floor terrace with great views of Pike Place Market, Elliott Bay and downtown. The restaurant (Ben Paris) is also notable, with the smart 15-dollar credit in the form of a casino token. The bed was very comfortable. The kettle-based in-room coffee service is a refreshing departure from the ubiquitous Keurig.
Disliked: This hotel suffers from what I call the 4-star syndrome: no microwave (somehow it's considered plebeian for 4-star hotels) and a castrated no-freezer fridge - but wait, there was NO fridge at all at State, in-room or otherwise, and it was a real bummer. Yes, folks, the rich also refrigerate!But the most outrageous thing was $22.07 for 2 small bottles of boxed water. They had small, gray and inconspicuous stickers on them: "Available for purchase, $10". Each bottle was pint-sized (500 ml to be precise). I didn't notice the stickers and drank this liter of wine-priced water, finding out only later from my credit card bill. BEWARE THE BOXED WATER! Nobody will turn it into wine for you.

A great stay with a...

Liked: The location was perfect! Loved the deck on the 8th floor. The complimentary snacks + hot cocoa were a nice bonus. I also loved the interior design of the room + the smell of the body wash and shampoo.
