No complimentary breakfast, food that was available was extremely expensive! Cheeseburger was overly done and burnt, asked for medium cooked. Service was slow

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, WA
My room was on the first floor and it was insanely loud. I woke up 3 or 4 times through out the night due to action in the lobby when I had to be up at 5am. Also the breakfast was not great at all. But the coffee was good and ready by 5am
