Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Use the Link Light Rail from the airport to the University District station, one block from the hotel, for a cost-effective $3 fare.

  • 02

    Request a room on a higher floor or away from the street if noise sensitivity is a concern, as some rooms face busy roads.

  • 03

    Book directly through the hotel's website to access potential discounts such as AARP or hospital rates and avoid unexpected amenity fees.

  • 04

    Factor in the $25 nightly parking fee when budgeting, as on-site gated parking is secure but not free.
