Holiday Inn Express & Suites Seattle North - Lynnwood, an IHG Hotel 2515 196th Street Southwest, Lynnwood, WA 98036

"Pull into the parking lot and there is a handful of cars with some shady looking people just Lurking out in the parking lot making me not feeling comfortable about leaving my vehicle what so ever. The grounds could be better kept for sure id give that 5/10 then Check in and get on the elevator and wonderful the elevator Operating permit is expired by 3 months You know the one that's required to be posted in the elevator by labor industries. Get to my floor as I am walking to my room a strong smell Of fetanyl Thoroughly through out the entire hallway to the point of when I made it to my door my head was pounding and I felt so nauseous. The room across from me Had a non-stop revolving door and all you hear is the door opening and closing there was no security whatsoever on the premises and the poor night guy is just a kid And some of these people I wouldn't even consider Trying to enforce any policies with just to avoid Potential conflict. Needless To say I just turned around And left there was no way I was going to feel comfortable or safe staying at this Property I didn't even bother taking up the fight for a refun due how nauseous I was in my head hurting just by walking down the hallway And most likely the night desk individual doesn't even have the authority to grant a refund or credit So this property would be the place for you if you were looking fo low-grade run of the mill slum hotel And I'm sure a variety Of illegal activity and substances this is the place for youBut if you're a normal contributing citizen to society by all means avoid this at all costs And let me add That my non-smoking room I reserved had plenty of cigarette Burns throughout it. I'm sure this property Could overcome all these issues with proper management and on-site security enforcing policy or guest safety and security while staying here"

"Would be five stars but the pool has way too much chlorine and the off-gassing makes the air on the main level smell like strong chlorine. No deep end on the pool. The breakfast is good, not excellent and not bad. I liked the selection. There's cold and hot food and you can eat reasonably healthy. If you're a food snob you probably won't be satisfied but will be satiated. Pancake machine is fun. They had some dairy free options for milk and yogurt, and turkey sausage. No gluten free bread or bagels. The room itself was very clean and fresh. The bathroom countertop was huge which was nice for getting ready. We also liked the wardrobe closet and all the table top space in the room, made it really easy to live out of a suitcase and have plenty of room for snacks, personal items and souvenirs."

"Almost everything in our room was broken. The phone was broken (not a huge deal) but then the kids wanted to heat up food and the microwave was broken! Definitely a bigger deal. Then in the morning the coffee pot was broken absolute b.s. and all they did was give us "points" (money off) our next stay. Bullsh!t. Kids had fun in the pool and the breakfast was good for it being complimentary"

"Stayed here with family and enjoyed the proximity to shopping centres and short drive downtown to tourist attractions. Great indoor pool and full gym setup. Complimentary breakfast and parking. A spill in the elevator and hallway remained for sometime but may have been overlooked as the building was undergoing some renos when we visited."

"A downright honest review. If your anything like me, you always get nervous about booking a hotel. Are the reviews and pictures a honest representation of the place your booking. When you open the door to your room and say wow or oh no. Well I can honestly say this hotel is bargain. This hotel is so close to stores and some great restaurants. There is a chic filet within walking distance. The front counter people are a mixed bag. Some are very helpful and some are less than. THE BREAKFAST BUFFET IS FANTASTIC. Eggs,omelets, and pancakes all included. The rooms were clean for the most part. Overall I would book this hotel again for the location and the breakfast. A solid pick and it won't break the wallet."
