Travel + Leisure
"Unveiled in 2006, this Belltown boutique hotel is housed in the extensively renovated site of a circa-1940’s Women’s Army Corps transfer station." Full review
Rough Guide
"An intimate boutique hotel in the Belltown neighbourhood, with chic, modern units featuring designer furnishings – more than half of them suites."
Condé Nast Traveler
"A hip hotel in hip Belltown. In the lobby, the Pacific Northwest meets Scandinavia in a rough-hewn granite fireplace and floor-to-ceiling maple bookcases." Full review
Star Service
"A more subdued version of Hotel Max, this operation has a subtler residential tone that will impress midrange business and leisure travelers. Independently owned, this is a wonderful one-off operation." Full review

"Significant renovations by new owners have turned this once understated hotel into a place that's hard to miss."
BlackBook
"Scandanavian inspired furnture (though not the IKEA kind) fill the rooms of this luxury boutique."
