Any Cheap Hotels In Seattle Now?

Hotel prices have skyrocketed at this time of year WHY
and where is a good place to stay but at a nice hotel?
Any suggestions????

I have had a lot of luck with Airbnb, but you have to be careful. Also, Seattle appears to have a seasonal tourist season similar to Europe. The cruise ships start coming in etc at a certain time of year. Floods the hotels etc.

Best option is to share a location with another local lady, if you can find one to trust.
