Fairmont Olympic Hotel
Beautiful, historic 100 year old landmark hotel - would have given it 5 stars but you have to deal with an obnoxious, non-working phone robot when you call the front desk. I would expect that at motel 6 but not a place like this.

The Paramount Hotel
Clean room and super nice staff. Everyone was super friendly. They are doing construction right now inside the building so it’s loud… but other than that it was a great experience!
