Disappointed tonight. Food just bellow average. It used to be excellent. Location is great! Great selection of beer. Too bad food is sooooo poor quality. It’s been a long time since I felt sick after eating a burger. And the most oily fries. Guys, you have to bring back the great kitchen you used to do. Bothell location

We had a wonderful time and stay at The Anderson School. We were visiting Seattle after attending a wedding in Mt Rainier National Park and absolutely loved the hotel and room we were in. The ceilings are insanely tall and the room was spotless. The pool was big and my son loved it. The restaurants were good other than poor table service one night they were very busy. We understood they were understaffed at the time. There were constantly people stoking and adding firewood to their fireplaces and fire pits in the courtyard. Lastly, we had bought movie tickets and there was a mix up with an event they were having. Instead of just refunding us the money, they gave us a private showing! Absolutely above and beyond.

Stay here! Highly recommended! Excellent staff, very helpful, kind, and cordial. Check in and check out was super easy. Great amenities. Really huge pool open until 8 pm. Very large and spacious guest room, extremely comfortable, and very very clean. Great food options on the property. Ate at the tavern and Woodhouse and both were excellent. Lots to see and walk around. The gift shop had neat items. If you're anywhere near Seattle and are looking for a fun and unique stay to relax, this is the place to go! Booked last minute while traveling through and was my favorite hotel the entire cross country trip. Beer selection was fantastic and bartender made great mixed drinks as well.

Great concept but actual room, amenities (like sheets and towels) and services were budget level. Sparsely and cheaply furnished, no work surface other than tiny bistro table, no coffee maker, microwave or fridge. Coffee service is only offered from 5-11 am in a separate building so if you want something in the evening, too bad. On a multi-day stay I asked for my room to be tidied and was told "We can't enter your guest room until after you check out - Covid policy". Yet the maid who brought supplies so that I could do my own cleaning stood inches from me in the doorway telling me how tired she was and how early she had to get up and how they are short staffed, so they can't clean the rooms, etc, etc. For the prices charged, amenities and service really need to be stepped up a few notches.
