[Air-L] SEATAC to the Hotel

[Todd Harper]

There's a route directly from baggage claim to the light rail station that
goes through the parking garage and doesn't require crossing an interstate
on foot. It's well-marked so you shouldn't have any trouble finding it.

Be advised that it's kind of a hike from the terminal to the rail station
with your luggage, in my opinion, but it is a cheap and reliable way to get
downtown from Seatac, especially since the hotel has no shuttle.
