No complimentary breakfast, food that was available was extremely expensive! Cheeseburger was overly done and burnt, asked for medium cooked. Service was slow

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, WA
My room was on the first floor and it was insanely loud. I woke up 3 or 4 times through out the night due to action in the lobby when I had to be up at 5am. Also the breakfast was not great at all. But the coffee was good and ready by 5am

Older hotel but great staff. Excellent shuttle service. Close to eating places. Only complaint was outside entrance doors were not locked allowing easy excess to non guests.
