Mediterranean Inn
We had a wonderful stay at the Mediterranean Inn! It was wonderful and we loved the fact that it’s so close to the Climate Pledge Arena so we could walk to the Kraken game! It’s also close to the space needle And you can actually get a great picture of it from the deck! I would definitely stay here ...
