Top hotels in Downtown Puyallup
DoubleTree by Hilton Seattle Airport
Check in desk was severely understaffed as there was one lady working and a line with about 40 people in it. Hotel is a little outdated but the bed was very comfortable.

Days Inn by Wyndham Seatac Airport
I was being cheap in selecting this hotel. This hotel needs to be updated. The sink by the door didn’t work. Next time I’ll pay a little more for a better hotel.

Red Roof Inn Seattle Airport - SEATAC
Nice stay in an older hotel by the airport. Best was the 24-hr shuttle to catch a very early flight, many hotels do not offer that.

The tiny house had what was advertised.. a small cozy place. We stayed in container 3 and loved our first experience in a tiny container home. BBQ grill and outdoor vibes were amazing.
