The staff was fantastic and very accommodating! The location is close to the airport and just a short walk to a Fred Myers. The continental breakfast was plentiful, however the water for tea & hot choc was not hot enough. The room and bathroom were very clean but the sleeping area was way too small for the price of over $200.
