AC Hotel by Marriott Seattle Bellevue/Downtown

A lot to like, and a couple of hiccups. First is, upon arrival there is very little space to pull up. The valets work hard to be efficient, but they can only do so much. Second when you enter on ground level, there is a an out of service elevator that seems to have been out of service for awhile. You have to schlep your bags up to the reception area via the stairs. Fortunately we had small bags but at times when we travel w our children this would be a major problem. At check in, at 4pm, many of the rooms I and others were checking in to were not ready for check in. Folks were forced to sit in the lobby w their bags awaiting a room assignment. We were fortunate enough to get our room. It was nice and yet in the building placement the window faced a rooftop hvac system and a another section of the hotel. No view, little day light. We are there to sleep but it’s be nice to see something vs a building and mechanical equipment. Last but not least parking is scarce and the valet is $49 per night. Depending on length of stay this can be a problem. Overall a positive experience but not an excellent experience.
