It is possible I got off at the wrong stop, but my recollection from the last time I stayed at this hotel is that it's not possible to get from the light rail to the hotel without at least one block of very steep hill, and a couple blocks of more moderate hills. So just be aware of that when you plan.

It wasn't in operation when I was living there but I looked around and it appears the University Street station is the closest (.3 miles/7 minutes walking) to the hotel and it looks like it is not up hill (major consideration downtown - *steep* *hills*). The train takes 45 minutes and the fare from the airport is $2.75 one way. The website is at: http://www.soundtransit.org they do have a trip planner. Lots of trains, esp. during peak times Walk from seatac to Seatac Link Light Rail Station 1. Walk southeast on Perimeter Rd. 2. Continue on Seatac Access Road. 3. Walk northeast on Seatac Access Road. 10 min (0.3 mi) I assume it will be well marked. If any locals wish to chime in case I am wrong or to confirm I am right, please do. -TED -- Ted M.
