Loved the populus would stay again. Valet parking was a little pricey. Like the option of the restaurant and bar rooftop. Up hill walk to pikes place. Have a nice walk in historic old town Seattle. Great distance from a lot of tourist attractions and also you can zip up to the coast or national parks as well

Frontal desk person did not mention security deposit and what is amount of the deposit, instead asked for "authorization signature. So, I signed without knowing for what amount. Next, I ordered taxi for 5 30 am to airport. It did not come.Person from frontal desk let me know that it oicked up somebody e km so in diffwrent place. So, I had to order 2nd time. As a result it arrived at 5 48am instead of 5:30. Next, front desk peson at the begining rejected to pick up my cases from the room to the lobby even for tip. He was agree only when I asked him second time.

The hotels looks very beautiful and the staff was very attentive but they are navigating active newborn hiccups. The room was tiny… which is fine, it took them several tries to bring up a bottle of bubbles that had been pre-ordered and easily could have been inside the room prior to check-in. The bar was beautiful and made great drinks. The food was satisfactory although my hasselback potato was not cooked through. As a constant traveler the thing that matters most to me is attention to detail. I left my fancy electric toothbrush in the bathroom, it was never recovered. I alerted them within hours of leaving but no avail. I think they will get there but until then I will stick with my tried and true Seattle spots.

This is a beautiful property. The reason I did not give it a 5 star overall is as follows: the rooms are beautiful but need more lighting, especially the bathrooms. The staff, in general is excellent. We had dinner at the Salt Harvest. The bill (as do many Seattle locations I learned during this trip) included a 20% tip. My friend was paying and did not notice the line item and gave them a 25% tip in addition to the one all ready included. She was not happy later when she looked at the bill later. Lastly, when we arrived our vehicle was stuck out in the street for 15+ minutes as there was not enough space for multiple guest to arrive at the same time. I want to reiterate other than my friend's disappointment with our food server, the staff was excellent.

This hotel has so much character! It was the perfect place to stay for a concert at T-Mobile Park. We felt safe walking to and from the venue. The room was dark and moody, in a great way. The beds were very comfortable. Would stay again and recommend to others.
