CeCe @ check-in was fabulous! She has the best personality, very upbeat, just made the stay more wonderful. Area around hotel felt safe- we walked to the Space Needle & on the way back stopped @ the grocery store that was 1 block away. Since there was a little kitchen in our room w/ a microwave, we opted to buy microwaveable meals for our dinner rather than order out, as we were beginning a 7 day cruise the next day. Room was spacious w/ kitchen, table/chairs, balcony, comfortable bed. I'd stay here again when visiting Seattle!
