Hotels Near Bartell Drugs in Issaquah

We were unable to drive to our house due to an icy hill, so we stayed a night at the Courtyard by Marriott Seattle Sea-Tac Area. We booked the room through a booking platform and chose the option that included prepaid parking. Imagine our surprise when the hotel charged us for parking anyway — and for two days, since we were there on both sides of midnight. I wrote to Marriott HQ about this and was told someone would be getting in touch. I'm still waiting. Finally, I wrote again. This time they totally ignored my email. DO NOT CHOOSE THE FREE PARKING OPTION. The hotel also socked us for $100 because we brought our dog. (A much better hotel where we just stayed charged a $15 dog fee.) The room was spartan (to say the least) and offered no amenities. When we asked about a microwave, they brought an ancient, decrepit model to our room. We could have heated our coffee faster with a flashlight. Free breakfast? Apparently not when you're spending a mere $239 (plus the dog fee). Rather than pay the outrageous prices at the on-site restaurant, we got a fine breakfast at the nearby Panera Bread. The one bright spot was the front-desk staff, who were friendly and seemed to care about the customers (and their dogs). But everything else seemed to deliver this message: ”We're here for one purpose — to separate you from as much of your money as we possibly can. And give you very little in return.” There are many other hotels in the Tukwila area, including some new ones that look very promising. I'd look into those before I'd ever consider coming to this one.

Express hotel, the room is simple, there is no coffee machine, but the first floor lobby is free of charge for coffee, hot water, the first floor lobby is very good, there is a billiards hall, there is also an office area

I’m not sure if this hotel has had a management change since my last visit here, but a lot has changed and not for the better. Check in staff takes 20 mins to make a reservation, you can’t understand the people working the front desk. There no longer is a hotel shuttle to and from the SEA airport, the bed and pillows were uncomfortable and itchy. The coffee shop in the lobby had closed its gates in front of our face cause the lady working said she had a family emergency. So we asked the restaurant on the other side of the hotel and she said she can’t make a coffee. The staff is rude! STAY AWAY!

Staying here is good in itself. I stayed for one night. From 5：30-7：30 you can enjoy this open bar service. I appreciate the big room. The breakfast was very good. I slept well too. There was a fundraiser in the main central courtyard area, which was very noisy. Until 9:00, his noise will pass directly to my room on the second floor. The gym is directly next to the indoor pool and smells of chlorine gas. So why give 5 stars? Because I arranged a meeting the next day in a building next to a nearby transformer, the staff could arrange our group as appointment-free customers. They smiled, bowed and did a lot to make sure we had everything we needed. They really saved my day. Thank you!

So let's start with saying I stayed at this hotel recently, think a couple of days ago, with my family so we could attend a funeral. I selected a hotel near the airport for ease of access knowing that we all came from three different places, using two different airlines and one person driving. Our troubles started upon arrival. Despite having one member's air travel being delayed by an hour, we still arrived long before the 4pm check-in time and was promptly told the room was not ready and we could call later to find out when it is ready. There is something... odd going on with their phone. At times the call would not connect, like it did when we were at the airport when I tried to call, and other times it will go through. This happened throughout the entire stay, so I simply asked if they had an approximate time when they think it might be ready. She snapped at me that check-in is 4pm, as if I hadn't heard her before. Years ago, I did housekeeping for a summer. I know there is a list, and where we are on the list might suggest if we are going to be closer to 4pm or a little earlier. We left with our bags, despite them offering to hold them for us, because no trust had been established here. I called twice later, the first time the call would not connect, the second time our rooms were ready at 2pm. We were not given the Preimum WiFi password at check in. We were not given pool information at check-in. Really the only information we were given at all was about having a menu in the room for the breakfast service which is not... true. We all heard it, and not only was it not there, another staff member seemed confused why we were asking for it. This brings us to the other problems. This hotel advertises services and amenities they literally do not have. The Basil restaurant is not operational and is described as permanently closed by staff. There is no onsite restaurant. This meant, for us, that people on different meal schedules were now needing to eat together because the convenience of onsite preparation is simply not there. The first night, I noticed there is no HBO. They advertise on their website, but I assure you there is no HBO. It's not listed in the guide and there is no amount of channel surfing that will find what is not there. They do have StarzEncore but mostly it's an On Demand service that charges 19.99 for movies that are currently streaming on subscriptions services. These are not even in theater movies. The TV on-screen guide will suggest you can cast to the TV. This is not true. Embassy Suites has disabled this feature. The app is certainly capable of this feature, but the way they have it set-up is to use your phone as a glorified remote. It can not cast to the TV. We paid for a premium suit as well. 3 adults in a room that is advertised to hold 6. The premium service affords us certain additional services, see attached photo, which includes the Premium WiFi I had to call and wait to get and the snacks which are said to

Jessica was our lovely waitress and made my brunch visit with my mom very enjoyable with her bright smile. The food exceeded our expectations and the coffee was a delightful experience. We were both very pleased with our experience and can't wait to come back.

I’ve stayed at this hotel whenever I’m in Bellevue, WA for well over thirty years. My earliest memories of this property were as a Red Lion Hotel. Then it became a Double Tree and finally, on its deathbed , it’s a Hilton. How the mighty have fallen… Not withstanding the property, which I’ll get into, I will say that the staff are generally kind and helpful. So this review is not to diminish their efforts. However hard they work, the reality is this property is beyond salvage and should be torn down and a new property should be built in its place. The bedrooms are grossly outdated, and when you look behind the doors, or in between the furniture, you’ll see how old this hotel is. While it’s sizeable in space and scope, the elevators are tragically slow, with two-of-four being out of commission when we stayed there recently. Sadly, the water pressure is so low it takes forever to wash and rinse. Our keycard failed three separate times, requiring a long walk and painful elevator ride back to the main desk where the staff reset the keycard. The pool is functioning, but there were never enough chairs and loungers. Add to this there were never enough fresh towels and you’re getting the taste of mediocrity this hotel delivers. One absolutely disgusting site is the swamp that lies just beside the pool (down the concrete foundation about twenty feet). I have no idea who thinks this is aesthetically pleasing, but it’s not. It’s home to a few ducks who clearly have poor taste in accommodations, as did we. This poolside unattraction is downright ugly. One thing I was interested to see were several staff members not wearing any type of formal Hilton uniforms. The breakfast buffet chef was literally dressed in Carharts with a t-shirt, work boots and a ball cap on. And one of the maintenance staff looked like he just walked in off the street. Management must have been on vacation at another property. Finally, the outside of the building, including the massive sloping glass facade, clearly hasn’t been washed in decades. And worse, yet, the parking area is filthy to say the least. Food containers, candy wrappers, cigarette butts and hygiene products lay a strewn for days with no effort to maintain a modest effort in appearance. This was the last time we will stay at this hotel. If you want to save yourself frustration and disappointment, I encourage you to stay at the new Marriott up the street. Literally blocks away, it’s a cleaner, nicer bet.
