The courtyard is a good hotel -- nothing fancy, but it was clean and comfortable. I wish there had been an outdoor patio/courtyard for guests, and I also wish they had a pool, but it is right across from Lake Union where you can watch people swimming and paddleboarding. You can walk or run the Lake Union trail, or take a decent walk to downtown and/or Seattle center. It's a great location if you don't mind some decent walks. The neighborhood was better than expected even with all the construction, and the staff were very friendly and accommodating.

No outdoor areas to sit and have a drink/coffee. No pool. Lots of construction happening very close by.

They had fresh steel cut oatmeal with all the trimmings. The people working there were kind and genuine, I think solicitous, both at the front desk and in the breakfast room. We had stayed there before the renovation and really liked the reno details and everything, except some of the upholstered cushions in the breakfast room, was spotless.

I’m am not a fan of noisy refrigerators in the bedroom, but I just unplug it.

• awesome staff, multiple individuals • great check-in process even with multiple people checking in. • Great views of lake from 2nd floor elevator and up! • Parking across street was free and very easily-accessible and right across the street from front door of hotel! • great downtown access and access to highways • 2 Starbucks on same street within 3 mins driving of hotel! • Hospitality with the ladies that clean the rooms was awesome!

• So not cool that many hotels are getting away from both microwave and fridge in unit; this is a reflection of the times and current industry trends. • Seemed like it was one tiny wastebasket in room; either a second on or a larger one in a better location in the room would have been more accommodating;

It has a good location with a beautiful view to the lake. Rooms are nice.

They don’t clean up your room if you stay less than two nights which I find even insulting for the price paid. It is on the short stays that you expect your room to be nice. First hotel that I’ve experienced this.

The beds were comfortable and the room was clean.

The adjoining door and hearing the people next to us auguring loudly at 5am in the morning. Not much rest after having a late night from going to a concert.

The location worked perfectly for the plans I had to get around Seattle; room was very comfy with a huge TV; bathroom was a comfortable size too. Every employee I talked to was very nice. Would definitely stay here again.

The noise from other room doors closing/opening is so loud I kept thinking someone was trying to open MY room door.

Location was great, right near where we needed to go. The view of the lake was stunning at night. Bed and pillows were so comfortable, we literally fell asleep for a nap at 4 pm and didn't get up until the next morning!

Neighboring room was a little bit noisy and woke us a couple of times, but not really within the hotel's control.

Location and staff were really lovely.

I liked everything- but oddly on a Tuesday night there was a boat party that went from 10pm-11pm or maybe even later. It sounded like my room was at a college party- no fun!

We stayed in room 506. It was clean and quiet. The complimentary coffee was a nice touch. The view of Lake Union is fantastic. We walked to the spot from the scene in the movie Sleepless in Seattle with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.

Everything was very good.

The front desk staff ((primarily Raoul, but it's true for everyone), was polite and helpful. Every request we made was honored. They upgraded our room. The restaurant food was outstanding and the staff (Stephanie, but again, true for everyone) was friendly and efficient. The location at Lake Union was ideal.

This is a minor quibble--the room temperature seemed a little erratic.
