I had a great stay at Hotel Max. Front desk staff was very friendly and I thought the text-based room service feature was cool. One great thing about Hotel Max is their free craft beer tastings from 530-630pm in the lobby. They don't skimp out on beer either - I had a local brew called space needle ipa that was delicious. The guy serving the beer was pretty cool also and recommended some good restaurants nearby. It was also cool that that you could take your beer in the pint glass they serve you, up to your room. I also ran out of coffee in my room and asked the front desk if it could be replaced and within a minute of me getting back to my room someone was there with coffee. The rooms are on the smaller side so this place is great for single occupancy or a couple. I was in a room with a king bed that was decently sized but definitely on the smaller side. I'm sure they have bigger rooms to accommodate larger parties though I wouldn't say this hotel is for families. The other interesting part is that the bathroom was split into two separate rooms; one with the toilet/sink and one with the shower. I thought it was interesting and it didn't really make my experience worse, it was just something new. The elevator is kind of small too, apparently it's the smallest elevator in Seattle or something. But I never had to wait extra for an elevator. I'd stay here again it's location is phenomenal and close to PPM and walking distance from good restaurants and bars. The experience was 4.5 stars but the smaller size room makes it a 4 overall. The modern looking decor makes it cool spot for young adults. read more

Visiting Seattle for several days on business and wanted a nice, relatively inexpensive place to stay. Unlike many smaller hotels in old buildings that Max was clean and fresh with none of the mustiness. The fixtures are all modern and in good working order. In many ways it is the hipster urban hotel one expects. I would caution potential guests that the room and bathroom are small and better suited to those traveling alone. Also there was a lot of noise from the street, hallways, and the air conditioner. The management must know this since they leave complimentary earplugs on the nightstand. If you bring your car parking is 45 a night. read more

Cute boutique hotel! Nice location, walking distance to the pike market, space needle and a variety of other places. The room was a bit small but very modern, clean and comfortable. The street can get loud but they give you earplugs which were very helpful. They offer complementary coffee and tea in the morning and beer in the afternoon in the lobby which is nice. Great, friendly and helpful staff. read more

Hotel Max - Really cute radio in my room - Hotels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Got this hotel via hotwire.com. It's in a very nice area downtown. It's a boutique hotel - so the rooms are very small, however, very elegant. Be aware that they charge $100 a night for deposits. They inadvertently triple charged my account. But the staff were more than accommodating and nice... They even offered me free valet parking the entire stay on my rental car. I'm not a rich person by American standards... So a triple charge is something that would totally ruin my day. But they did a great job making up for it. They have complimentary beer every night from 530 to 630pm. And if you skip room service for the day, they give you a five dollar credit toward their bar. The staff is very hipster. But they are straight up some of the nicest people. Highly recommended hotel. read more

I cannot say enough good stuff about the service here at the Hotel Max! Anjel at check in at front desk was so helpful and polite with recommendations and ideas. Jim with Valet-wow!! Yes, he did his job which that in and of itself is rare it seems....but he grabbed all our bags, brought them to our room and then we needed to get into our car he walked us to the garage, all the while pointing out amenities in the hotel. Jason at front desk-4am we needed coffee! Since coffee was not available in lobby for several hours he offered to bring up coffee with it and fixins to our room. He showed up moments later. He made 2 additional trips with extra mug and cream.... of which we offered to come down to get. The hotel was cute, perfect location, beds SUPER comfy. I'm not sure why there are so many complaints about noise, we had no issues with external noise or hotel noise and our room was right on the corner. Steakhouse downstairs-Miller's Guild- is a MUST! One of the best steaks I have ever had....and I eat a lot of steak. Hands down better than even some of the steaks I've had that are $100+ per person. I would absolutely stay here at Hotel Max again if for nothing else but the great service! read more

This is a funky hotel with really good atmosphere. The rooms are a little small, and the tub was slippery when I showered (I mean, SUPER slippery!). I'll for sure stay here again, though. read more

We stayed there last Weekend. We will never ever ever ever ever stay there again. They charge you up the Ying Yang for coffee, Beer games. And you don't even use them. The bathroom is so small you can wash your hands and be on the toilet at the same time. Please wash your glasses in the city and any surface you touch the ice bucket is a joke. They give you one chair for two people in the room. Non-functional furniture no drawers you're living out of your suitcase literally. read more

I stayed at Hotel Max once back before it was Hotel Max. I remember that the rooms were small, but it was quaint & cute. Well now that it's Hotel Max, there is only one word to describe this hotel... Sexy. From the dark color scheme with bright pops of color, to the black and white photos, to the comfy beds and intimacy kit, this hotel is about setting the right mood. There are some downsides... 1. The size of the room The room was small, there wasn't enough room for all of our clothes. We stayed there for 4 nights, so we didn't have that much with us. The bathroom was tiny, but was really well designed so it was surprisingly functional. I will say that I mentioned how small the room was to the staff and they offered to move us, but I really just wish they had given us a decent size room first. 2. The price of valet parking They don't post the price anywhere and after looking online I was expecting it to be in the $22 range. It ended up being $30 per night. There is also no where to park around the hotel that is convenient, so valet was the easiest option, unfortunately. Their Foursquare special helped a little bit and made it easier to swallow. 3. Staff is mixed on customer service I will say some of the staff was wonderful and really cared about making my stay awesome. Some couldn't care less and then some were 50/50 on it. Though this hotel is "cool," I wish some of the staff didn't get caught up in that. So, overall, the hotel is nice, but make sure you ask for one of the larger rooms up front. I probably wouldn't come back to Hotel Max unless I was only staying a night or two, an extended trip here is not advised. read more

oh, hotel max...had you been a little less pricey i would've given you a 4-star, but a-okay is where your rating will have to be... given the price on the rooms for the couple days that bf and i was there and the square footage and overall amentiies, it didn't quite seem balanced. don't get me wrong, the room was overall adequately sufficient for our purposes and it was in a good location to get to and from all the stuff we wanted to see in seattle without requiring a cab fare (mostly) or rental car...but still, something was a little lacking about the room overall. the bathrooms were very small and only had a shower, bathroom hardware was of the modern and minimal style so the toilet looked like the kind you find in a bus terminal... the bedroom features were good though -- comfortable bed, good linens, and a standard flat screen TV... all in all, i'd probably stay here again, but only if they lowered their rates/room a tad... read more

Hotel Max - July 2010 - Hotels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I have to say that I really enjoyed my stay here. Yeah, the rooms and bathrooms are small, but I'm used to cramped apartment living so it didn't bother me so much. The hotel's style is so sexy--I loved the cool lit lobby area and all the nice photography on our room's floor. And a major plus, our room had a beautiful view of the space needle. The location was pretty central, which made walking around and catching buses/metros super easy. And the fitness room was spotless, as well as superbly stocked with clean towels. Definitely booking this spot again when the A's play the Mariners ;) read more

Overall 3-5 If your staying in the downtown area and need a place to crash after a long day out and about or a long night out on the town then sure it's a better place than Motel 6. It's location is great right in the middle of downtown but so are a lot of other hotels and with downtown being so walkable you can kind of stay anywhere and be close to things. Don't expect to showoff to anyone this place is a like a motel 6 dressed in knock off Louis Vuittons . For the price if your trying to chic it up you might as well spend a bit more and stay at the newer hotels. Oh and the walls are thin yes. Room 3-5 First off the room is small! Don't get confused with marketing terms such as chic and stylish. There is nothing chic or stylish about stuffing a king size bed in a tiny room. Big plus the window installed ac / heater unit really cools or heats the room well and fast. Bathroom 3-5 Again small specifically the stand up shower. Take your hands place them in prayer position in front of you...oh wait you can't? what's that you feel bumping your elbows...oh right that's the narrow shower walls! View 3-5 Had a view of the parking lot across the street so not much to look at Room service 5-5 Friendly and attentive. They have "green" options available as well so that's always a plus. They have a pillow menu for hard or soft pillows but I think if they got rid of some of the pillows and put that money into a better tv that might help TV 2-5 Flat screen yes, but it might possibly be the first flat screen ever made. Quality was no were near dvd or hd when watching cable. Don't even think about ordering a movie your better off watching youtube on your computer Ambience 3-5 They definitely tried to "mtv crib" it out. The lobby is small which speaks volumes of the place in general. No real place to hang out in the lobby but some interesting art. Step into the elevator (hopefully you didn't bring alot of luggage) again small. Every hotel door has an interesting picture covering the door. Color scheme is very black and red. read more

Hotel Max is very conveniently located and is moderately priced in comparison to other hotels in the area. Rooms are usually about $120 a night but can cost more on certain days of the year. The hotel is also connected to a great sushi restaurant called "Red Fin" which is well worth eating at. Hotel Max is also very artsy, you can find interesting paintings and photographs throughout the entire hotel from the hallways to the inside of your room. Hotel Max is within walking distance of Pike Place Market and the Pacific Place mall, as well as other shopping in the area. Once the sun goes down if you do not feel comfortable walking in an unfamiliar city, most nightlife is a cheap cab ride away. Enjoy your stay! read more

This should not be your first choice, but if it is your only choice, it'll do. I stay in Seattle pretty regularly and need to stay close to here. There are plenty of hotels nearby, though admittedly, most of the others will be a little more expensive. (Westin Seattle, Mayflower, Paramount, are examples) PROS ======== 1. Affordable 2. Convenient location to downtown and South Lake Union 3. Taxi stand a block away 4. Good Sushi restaraunt (Red Fin) in lobby CONS ======== 1. Cramped space. I've stayed in a numerous hotels in Seattle, and this place is cramped. 2. Wireless access is garbage. At least, it was on each of the 4 nights I stayed. (Garbage = long time to get on network, dropped several times a night, slow) 3. (CON to me but maybe PRO to others) Hotel intended to have an artsy edgy feel (i.e. every room door has some B&W photo art). Dark Halls and rugs. Just didn't do it for me. 4. In window AC units. (CON for me.) read more

This review is about the Customer Service over the phone at Hotel Max: I had some trouble booking with the website so I called to confirm my room had actually been booked. The gentleman I spoke with was very helpful, he saw that my reservation indeed had come through on their end, noticed that I would be traveling up from Portland and recommended a better deal for me than the one I had booked! Hotels can be so expensive it was refreshing to find one that wanted to save me a few dollars. I have yet to stay at the hotel itself, but based on other yelp reviews I am hopeful that the stay will live up to the service I received over the phone. read more

I'm in Seattle at a minimum twice a year for Emerald City ComiCon (ECCC) and the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX PRIME). This was my first time in a few years staying downtown and we chose to stay at Hotel Max because of their excellent proximity to the convention center and the really good Amazon Local Deal. The hotel itself is wonderfully modern. Their customer service and valets were very professional and fast to respond to any questions or concerns. I knocked off a star because of the cramped bathroom and sleeping area. The ratio of bed to furniture is a bit off for two people. The bed itself though was just fine. Would certainly stay again! read more

Stayed here for our one year anniversary. The decor is cute and the rooms are the perfect size. Bryce took great care of us, and sent a bottle of prosecco and some chocolate to our room. We stayed on the 9th floor corner room with a gorgeous south eastern view of downtown. It was a perfect location to easily get everywhere to explore the city. We will definitely be staying here next time we come back. read more

Hotel Max - Complimentary prosecco and chocolate from Bryce for our anniversary. So sweet! - Hotels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The staff at Hotel Max are truly exceptional. They really try to make your stay enjoyable and that was so appreciated. I was a little nervous about the reviews complaining of super small rooms. I called and was assured they'd give us one of the larger rooms and if that wasn't to our liking they'd upgrade us. We ended up with their biggest queen room on the top floor. Nice! It's right behind the elevator so you do hear a bit of noise as it goes up and down. It wasn't enough that it kept us awake, and there were ear plugs on the nightstand in case it was a problem. Nice touch. The bed. Ohmygosh the bed. So comfortable. read more

Scary? Creepy? Uncomfortable? Not words you would normally associate with a hotel that, on the outside, appears to be quite normal. I checked in at 8. "I am sorry, we have some bad news for you. The rooms were shuffled and your Queen is no longer available. We are putting you in a double. No credit. No "real" apology. Nothing. I travel to Seattle three times a month on business. I move around to different hotels, typically based on price. I have learned not to go for the low end. This hotel room was BY FAR the creepiest room I have stayed in. BY FAR. The room was tiny ... pretty much room for a double bed, a small beat up nightstand and a desk. The Shower was in one closet (really, in a closet, behind a door). The toilet and sink were in another closet (really, another closet, like behind a door and up a stair). The window alongside the bed had strips of vinyl over it so you couldn't see out, except through two slits. The air conditioning unit in the window stuck out to the bed. You could actually kick it in the night ... and needless to say, it was loud. Much louder than the snoring guy on the airplane on my trip up. The one I could still hear through my construction-grade earplugs. The shower was the weirdest part. A solid vinyl curtain let no light in ... and you felt like you were in a closet. Not in a shower. Because you WERE in a closet. Very strange. The toilet had a soft-close lid and the sink was fine. But they were somewhere else, up a wonky step. Super uncomfortable experience. It's a good thing I was really tired. Went right to bed, got up and got out as quickly as possible. read more

Overall a great hotel. We stayed for 5 nights. This was our first visit to Seattle and Hotel Max was in a central, convenient location. Approx 10 min walk to Pike Market and the waterfront. The area is a little hilly- get ready for a light workout! Really enjoyed the happy hour- we went a couple times. Great music playing in the lobby, and very friendly staff. The lobby turned into a little lounge with hotel guests- have never experienced this at a hotel before- great idea!! Each day you opt out of housecleaning, you receive $5 toward the "honor bar". We went green for the week and ended up w a bag full of goodies for the plane ride home. Another great marketing idea! Only drawback was the shower. The curtain didn't quite go all the way around, so ended up w lots of water on the floor each time. Other than that, no complaints... Would definitely recommend Hotel Max for your Seattle stay. read more

Stayed at the Max for a second time. The front desk was great this time around and exceeded my expectations. I stayed 4 nights and I was beyond content and comfortable. This hotel is my little Gem in my favorite city. read more

Hotel Max is a charming hotel to stay at in downtown Seattle. Here are my thoughts on it: Pros: - Incredible location within walking distance to many restaurants and shops - Helpful staff - Options for pillows; soft and firm - Modern design throughout hotel - Gourmet coffee and water available in lobby - Cool soaps in bathroom - Decent view of city on 9th floor in corner room - Clean (minus bathroom smell) Cons: - There was a slightly erotic painting of a naked woman in the room, so maybe not kid friendly. - The bathroom smelt like cigarettes - The elevator was small and slow - $4 for a Snicker's bar in the room is cruel. I would give a 5 star if the bathroom didn't smell like cigarettes. It wasn't an overwhelming smell, but you could smell it. read more

Glam Slam on the Seattle to-do list. The cuteness quotient is high here, with service polished and professional. I can't wait to return and enjoy all the "other" stuff in the neighborhood. Walked everywhere and enjoyed a spectacularly sunny day-very lucky indeed. read more

I always stay at Max when I am in Seattle unless they are booked up. My download on this joint: - Location: Perfect (for me) - close to public transportation, walking distance to tons of places to eat, shop and the water. - Rooms: Modern, clean, comfy beds. I always book a room that includes WiFi or something 'cuz I don't remember paying for it. The rooms aren't huge but I've stayed in plenty of smaller rooms in NYC, SF and Europe. - Arrival/Departure: Easy, always book online and checkout is a snap. Front desk staff is helpful. - Fitness Room: Nope, would be nice but if you want to work out bring your running shoes or buy a day pass at one of the nearby gyms. - Dining: Japanese/Sushi joint next to lobby is solid, good local beers on tap. Many more places in walking distance. Summary: Sick of chain hotels? This place has a lot of character and is in a great location for exploring downtown. A great value. read more

So disappointed. I stayed at Hotel Max a couple of years ago with my man and we had a GREAT time, so when my mother in law was in town this past weekend and looking for a place to stay, I sent her there. I should've never recommended it to her. The walls were so thin, she heard every last thing that the neighbors were fighting about. Her room was crazy small. Barely enough room for the three of us. The size of the bathroom was a complete joke. There are only 2 elevators and no service elevator. It seemed like only one of them was working. They were super slow too. And when one would finally come, no one could get in it because the maid was in it with her cart of stuff. (Not the maid's fault of course!) When we took the dog out to go potty, it took us at least 30 minutes because of the elevator. We were on the 7th floor, so I was not really interested in hiking up 7 floors. It's definitely a bummer, because I really did love Hotel Max a couple of years ago. I will absolutely not be staying there again or recommending it to anyone. read more

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Location is great. However, room was very small and bathroom was even smaller. Bathroom the size on an airplane with shower the size uf small phone booth. After $250+ room they nickel and dime you, Wifi is $9/night and parking is $33 read more

Excellent hotel. Inexpensive, relaxed feel, very nice and accommodating staff. I went to Seattle for a few days by myself but they made sure to make me feel welcome and comfortable. Definitely would recommend to friends as well as family and would stay there again myself. tl;dr Modern feel but still professional Great hotel staff Access to tourist destinations/downtown Low cost Music/arts theme read more

There are only 2 negatives that took down the 1 star. The first is that the bed was a bit too soft for my taste. The second was that the air conditioner was a bit loud, but it's a window model so they're always loud. Generally, great place! I saw we had a dog guest by the water and snack bowl in the lobby. The lobby is one of my favorite parts of the hotel. I love the music, the water, and the gum balls. I am gluten free and my husband doesn't eat red meat so going to the restaurant in the hotel was out. Even for the craft beer happy hour. The staff was so attentive. Almost too attentive. I say that because we came in late (east coast time) and I kept getting texts for the first hour asking if I needed anything. The room was about the right size since you are downtown. What was funny was that the shelf in the bathroom was slightly off so things would slide off when it got wet from steam in the shower. They do a honor bar bonus for not having to clean your room while you are there. We were to tired the first night to understand that. The rest of the nights there we got some bonuses which we cashed in when we checked out by taking things from the honor bar. There are ton of outlets for your various devices to charge from and that was awesome. The staff made some excellent recommendations for breakfast and the nearest pharmacy(forgot a critical med at home). They made sure that not only did I have the address, directions, and phone numbers but also a map of downtown Seattle. IF you have to leave your luggage while checking in or out they give you claim tags to pick them up. That way you and they can be certain you have the right luggage. It is fairly quiet on the street for downtown. We didn't hear a lot of noise from outside. The walls were a bit thin but tolerable. We could hear our neighbors in the next room. They did include ear plugs for the ac if it's too loud for you. We didn't use them. The elevator is activated by using your key (up only), so don't forget your key in your room! We didn't use the parking since we had family in the area. I hear it's not cheap. If you can make do with zip car or cars 2 go, I'd recommend that if you want a car. Most places in Seattle you can get to by public transportation and/or taxi so it's not a big deal to have a car there. IT was a wonderful stay and we'd stay there again if we can't get housing from family. read more

This is by far my favorite hotel ever! I travel for work constantly and having a fun affordable place to stay in a cool city is hard to come by. Staff is by far 10/10! And the free happy hour with local craft beer? That's just the perfect treat after a long day on the road. Ps- you can even "rent" a record player for your room!!!!!!!!! WHAT?!? SO AWESOME read more

This hotel is awesome! We were arriving earlier in the morning, so I reached out to the hotel via FB about a week prior to see if we would be able to check into the hotel early. They replied saying they would make note and do their best to have a room ready- I told them we couldn't wait to celebrate our anniversary there & the little bit extra of their help would be great. It was about a 20-30 minute drive from SeaTac, which was great. We arrived around 1030/11am, and thankfully we had a room ready. The front desk staff was great- so friendly and welcoming to my boyfriend and I! When we got into our room, a bottle of champagne was chilling with some chocolate and a sweet note. Such a great way to start our week. We had a rental car, and their valet/car attendants were so nice and friendly. They all remembered our names by the first/second day. We really appreciated how friendly they were, and recommendations for things to do in the area. It was worth the $45/night charge. Overall, we had a great time at Hotel Max! The only reason it gets a 4 star review is for 2 things: - The shower is TINY. - The A/C unit is loud. We would definitely stay here again! read more

Hotel Max - Comfy king bed. - Hotels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Excellent room and service!! Room was SO comfortable, quiet street, everything was very clean. We got in early for a really small room and were promptly upgraded and given a room key. Centrally located. Walked from Pikes Market to Ivars and back. Can't say enough about the people who made my moms bucket list trip so memorable. Would stay again. read more

I wouldn't recommend this place. I stayed here before and had a completely different experience (earlier this year). This time it was awful. The room I stayed in shouldn't be rented out. The window wouldn't close all the way, the smoke detector was hanging from the ceiling and the bed was so incredibly uncomfortable that it caused me such bad back pain, I moved the bedding on to the floor and slept there. They have several room size options. Mini, Modern, Max. I was in the Modern and I wouldn't recommend this room to pregnant women (like me) or anyone who was on the larger size.I couldn't even imagine what the Mini is like. The bathroom is hilariously small. The shower curtain didn't reach the floor so water would spill out from under and soak the floor. It was only me and I stayed 5 nights and every single towel was used because of the water issue. When I tried to wash my face in the sink, water would splash on to the counter and all over the floor and I would hit my head on the small glass shelf above the sink. Every time I sat on the toilet I would ram my arm into the sink counter. I have a bruise from the corner. When I would shower and go to wash my feet or legs I would touch both sides of the shower (even when I tried not to). Good things? The staff is super friendly and helpful. They offer credit to the honor bar if you skip daily housekeeping, they have coffee in the lobby every morning (which I skipped because the it tasted burned and felt it was sub par for Seattle standards), and offer a happy hour in the evening with beer (which I did not partake in since I am pregnant but saw lots of people enjoying). The location is nice and central. It's an easy walk to food, shopping and - why I stay downtown - my office. The best thing about this place is their bathrobes. It honestly is why I came back this time. They are basically a hoodie that has been elongated into a robe. Same material, style and includes a hood. I even tried to track down the manufacture and purchase one (you can purchase through the hotel I believe for $100 which I wasn't willing to spend on a robe) read more

Wasn't the experience I expected. Super cool vibe when you walk in and head towards the room but, once you get to your room, I was very underwhelmed. Super small room and TINY bathroom. Shower was, seriously a 30" x 30" square and there is zero vanity space. No sundry items at all and everywhere around the place closes at 10 or earlier. Won't stay here again next time I come back unless I have to. read more

I feel sad for the people below who had a bad experience at Hotel Max... because I had a wonderful time there. The valet service was prompt, the front desk staff was friendly, and while I spent a little extra on one of their special packages it was very much worth it. The room was a gorgeous corner room on the "rock floor"... the decor was modern and unique... and everything was clean and presentable. And the bed... oh god... the bed... delightful. Best night of sleep ever. Also, it was close to tons of downtown places (Jazz Alley, Palace Kitchen, Pacific Place). The only thing that might not appeal to everyone's palette is that there is a risque undertone to the building itself... but, if you're looking for a unique boutique hotel experience, you will get it here. I had a fantastic time and only wish that I could have stayed longer!!! read more

Hotel Max - Nice little bed! - Hotels Near Me - Seattle, Washington

See all

I stayed at the Hotel Max last week on a whirlwind of a surprise weekend. Found out we were going to Seattle Thursday morning, and by Thursday night I was safe and sound and incredibly comfortable in my 12th floor queen bed. The lobby is so cool, complete with artwork throughout the property and a definite change of pace from more "We'll leave the light on for you" type of hotels. The staff was incredibly helpful in checking us in, helping us figure out parking, and even accommodating for some surprises to be placed in our room in advance. They heard from a little birdy that I like bluegrass- and sure enough, it was playing on the radio when made it upstairs. Overall, I had a great stay and loved all the small touches- the pillow menu, the huge bed, the cool door artwork and the amazing food next door. I'd definitely recommend staying here- I know I will again! read more

Solo travellers beware! The hotel was hip, the staff was friendly and knowledge, and the location is great. However, my Solo Art room smelled a little and the bed was the worst I've had for the room price (bill came out to be approximately $400 including tax for 2 night stay - a Thursday and Friday). The online reservation system isn't the best, and the room is so small that your two little closets are actually your toilet and your shower, and the loud heater/A/C unit is practically in your face but I can be very forgiving for a lot of things as long as I sleep well. I didn't. The bed is slanted, saggy, and unbalanced. I assume that every past guest has sleep on the right side of the bed, since the left side is comfortable and perfect. Too bad you can't sleep on the left side if you tried, because it's so uneven, you automatically roll "downhill" to the right side! My back hurt from my two nights stay, and I am shocked that for such a nice hotel, they didn't have the common sense to rotate the mattress more often in the solo rooms. I mentioned it to the front desk and the gentlemen said he would look into it, but that seemed like a blow off response. I would have been happier if I had a different room, or stayed elsewhere. read more
