The property is comprised of 2 buildings totaling over 31,000 square feet and features an outdoor seasonal pool and hot tub. Guest room mix includes Queen Singles, Queen Doubles, King Singles, and King Deluxe rooms. Hotel amenities include Grab N’ Go breakfast, an airport shuttle to SEA-TAC, and ample guest parking. The hotel is unencumbered by brand or management agreements, offering flexibility for repositioning. Located in an Opportunity Zone.
Strategically positioned off Interstate 5 and near the I-405 exchange, the property benefits from steady demand generated by the airport, nearby distribution centers, and regional business activity. This asset presents a value-add opportunity for experienced operators to modernize and rebrand in a high-demand submarket of the Seattle metro. Current operations are under-optimized, offering upside through active ownership, staffing efficiencies, and professional management. The flexible franchise agreement may be terminated with 30 days’ notice, creating options to reduce brand-related costs. A proactive operator can further drive performance by pursuing airline crew contracts, group bookings, and event-driven demand. Strong transportation access and proximity to major employers support sustained commercial and transient traffic.
