Although this should be more of a trip report, I will post some quick comments on Seattle Double Tree Guest Suites. When living in FL, I recall a chain called Guest Suites which were basically Holiday Inn Express with room added on for seating area. This hotel reminded me. Any coincidence?

First, the bad stuff:
The sink was outside bathroom in hall between living room and bedroom. Had pointed edge that we hit a couple of times. Extremely dangerous for children.

Hotel looked newer than other SEA DoubleTrees but construction inside seemed cheap.

The window next to the front door and seating area at entrance gave me more the idea I was at a dentist's office waiting area. Very impersonal. 2 TVs but both were very small.

Now to be fair, the good stuff:
The staff at DoubleTree where very courteous and friendly. Everybody greeted us.

HHonors take note, this is the only Hilton property I have not had to argue for the breakfast coupons. We received 2 breakfasts for each night and they included weekend brunch until 12.

And unlike most airport area hotels, parking was free.

Fitness center was bigger than some resort hotels I have been to- nice sauna and indoor pool. Not just a "room with a stair master" as you find in most hotels.

Overall, I believe the hotel staff were great as they tried, breakfast was delicious with Denver scrambled eggs and miso soup of all things.

However, my general disappointment arises from the idea that this hotel was the standard fare "suites" that Orlando has which are basically Super 8 motel rooms with additions and sleep familes of 4-6. I guess I was expecting something like Embassy Suites.
