walkitoutWe had an uneventful nonstop to Seattle on JetBlue. In planning the trip, I kept changing the car rental. First, it was to pick up at SEA, park at hotel, drive to Portland and returning at PDX. When I saw how much they charged for doing that, I was like, well, maybe two car rentals, one in Seattle, one in Portland and take the train. That was fine, but when I saw what the Sheraton wanted to park my car, I was like, do I really need it, and got rid of it, figuring I’d uber everywhere. So we got a taxi from SEA to the Sheraton Grand, the party hotel for WorldCon.
Hotel had our reservations via passkey, but the feather free request did not make it all the way through. Half the pillows feather. When housekeeping brought poly pillows, only one of them was poly. Half of R’s (different room) were feather. Feather filled comforter. I did eventually swap pillows with R. so I got all poly that way, but had to request housekeeping bring bedding. Fortunately, that let us have two smaller duvets on a king, which is better anyway. Housekeeping was not happy with me at that point, I probably should have tipped but I 100% was not feeling it.
