Our 2 Days in Seattle adventure continues with the place we rested our tired feet and sleepy heads after long hours of walking and exploring. When choosing accommodations for travel, I tend to prefer smaller boutique hotels to large convention center-esque hotels. So when given the choice between two hotels for my 2 Days in [...]
