Best Western Plus Downtown Tacoma
Room was clean and parking was easy. The breakfast was okay, my waffle came out underdone and the juice was broken. We tried the bar/restaurant. The menu was inaccurate regarding what drinks were actually available and the food was mediocre. The water and ice throughout the building had a foul taste ...

Everything was great except the coffee. It was not “Seattle's best” but rather Seattle’s worst. Seriously it was bad. Quiet room great staff but really bad coffee

Red Roof Inn Seattle Airport - SEATAC
The Red Roof Inn at Seattle Airport was awesome. Our room was very clean, the shower actually drained when showering instead of standing in a foot of water. How many times are you at a hotel and the shower drain can’t keep up. The shuttle to the airport was very convenient.
