We stayed here for a little staycation last weekend and had a great time. I was skeptical about the whole staycation thing, but we had a great time shopping, went to campagne for a great dinner, and didn't have to worry about driving home after a couple drinks. the view was awesome, and we found an awesome deal on their site
Pros: Great view, perfect location, great web deals
Cons: none

The Fairmont Olympic Hotel does not have to compete with other hotels in the area because this hotel is the only one of its kind. A true Grande Dame. From the Brass Leopards which stand guard at the entrance to the thread count of the soft linen, the details embrace you with total luxury. It isn't even necessay to leave the hotel. The Olympic offers everything from fine dinning, brunch and cocktails to a full service spa and very helpful room service. I would recommend that a honeymoon be spent here. Or any special occasion.
Pros: suites to live in
Cons: the suites are always booked

they were punctual, hard working, careful, professional, and very friendly across the board. for this move, they came in under their estimate.
it should be said that we prepared well for the move -- boxed and organized everything carefully, moved a small volume of extremely fragile and valuable things ourselves, thought about where everything would go in the new space in advance. doing that kind of thing will improve your cost and experience, regardless of whom you use to help.
a few of their movers were finishing up a move down the street, and they called them over to help out, even though it definitely drove the time (and thus the bill) down. i wouldn't expect that kind of thing to happen every time, but it demonstrates great character. highly recommended.

Wings Aloft is a good place to learn, and rent whether you are flying as a hobby or for your job.
I had no flight experience when I signed up for lessons, but they found me an instructor I got along with, designed the lessons and schedule to fit my needs, and got my flying comfortably in the first two lessons. I've been learning ever since, and am on track towards a PPL (Private Pilot's License).
Staff is friendly, helpful, and always available. In addition to lessons, there are educational seminars, and fun & social events.

We had a terrific stay! Our Yorkies were greeted and welcomed as well as we were. Shopping was so close and convenient. Accommodations were cozy, comfy and welcoming! Locations for walking our pups were convenient and well lit. Staff was courteous and prompt with fulfilling all requests. We would stay there again in a heart beat! We lucked out with a parking promotion.

We had walked by Shuckers a few times while staying at hotels nearby and never really considered it (maybe the name, and no enthusiasm for oysters?). July 4, our usual area targets were closed, so there we were. Never read a review, so no expectations.
We're really glad we went! We were seated promptly; the service was actually rather amazing - we never had to wait to ask questions or order, nor were we pestered by over-attentiveness. Perfect balance.
I had something I very rarely have: fish and chips. Four good-sized chunks of halibut in a wonderful, light batter; generous cuts of fresh potato, perfectly cooked. I waved one of the fries under my companion's nose: 'what do you smell?' - 'Potato!' The experience was perfectly cooked battered fish and potato, not oil (which I expect, and why I rarely order f&c).
They have a decent beer list with local microbrews - some organic - which was perfect with the above. I had the 'beer flight' (array of 3) and particularly liked the perfectly balanced and aromatic Manny's Pale Ale. Dessert was their version of strawberry shortcake: based on a very solid lemony cake, fresh strawberries, whipped cream and a scoop of house-made strawberry sorbet. Good finish to the main.
My companion has allergies and these were dealt with creatively and without condescension (always a treat when that happens!).
In fairness, this was July 4th evening, and the place was less than half full; but we would certainly go back to explore the other dishes.

I was meeting some friends for appetizers and drinks prior to the Mariners game. I have to say the staff at Jimmy's was very professional and most attentive. From the time you walk in the door to the time you leave you are treated very well. The food was very good and I would recommend Jimmy' for lunch, dinner or drinks & appetizers prior or after a game.
Pros: Good Service, Good Food,
Cons: None

I stayed at this Best Western location for a week last summer. The rooms were very clean and the staff was nice. The prices at Best Western are always good and you always know what you are going to get. So that is a plus!

Everything about this experience was wonderful. The friendly helpful customer service in setting up the move, the skilled, efficient (amazingly fast), careful, professional movers, all made this a worthwhile experience. I will never move myself or children again. I will always call Express Movers.

I went and stayed with my wife over the weekend (I live in Seattle, but let my folks stay at our place). It was awesome to do a little mini staycation, walked to Poppy in Capitol Hill, and my wife did some shopping at Pacific Place, which was also walking. The best part is that I got an amazing deal, the front desk people said they are trying to promote the fact that they put $20 million in renovations to locals.
Plus their sky bar has an awesome view! *updated* I have to say that both my wife and I were very impressed with the digs you set us up with. Everything about the space was amazing and we really enjoyed hanging out in the room. We started off the night with a little happy hour in the Visions Lounge and enjoyed some delicious crab cake sandwiches, locally produced Washington gin martini's and of course, the amazing view. We wandered downtown for some shopping and dinner and greatly enjoyed the bottle of wine you sent our way. Again, thanks so much for your generosity.
Pros: Amazing Deal, we could bring our dog, and could walk so many cool places
Cons: none
