Mediterranean Inn
Stayed here recently and overall had a great experience. The location is perfect—there are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance, which made everything super convenient. Parking is available in the back, though the spaces are a bit tight, so just something to keep in mind if you ...

Executive Hotel Pacific
Great location. Easy check-in. Room was clean, but looked a bit worn. Charging ports only located in one nightstand. A/C unit didn't cool and bathroom fan didn't work.

The Paramount Hotel
They have eliminated the in-room coffee - tea makers and mugs. They offer “complementary” coffee in the lobby only from 4AM to 7 AM! That’s when the restaurant opens so you can BUY to-go coffee or tea. Ridiculous!

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, WA
Breakfast sucked...

Coast Gateway Hotel
We chose this hotel because of the low rate and convenient location near our airport parking. The staff member who checked us in was friendly and helpful, offering good info for us. Parking is pretty tight, but other than that, we had a comfortable stay!
