Yes, it's easy and inexpensive to get to the hotel from the airport
using the regional light-rail system.  Follow the signs from the
terminal; it's a several-minute walk along a pedestrian path through
the parking garage.  Google Maps says to take Link Light Rail to the
University Street stop, although I'd think that the next stop after
that, Westlake, would work pretty well, too.  Either stop leaves you
approximately three blocks from the hotel.

Seatac is the first stop on the line, and it's the only line, so
there's little to puzzle through.

Buy a single-ride fare from the machine and just hold on to whatever
the machine gives you.  There's no turnstile.  The fare is no more
than about $3; a taxi is about $40 and shuttle buses are in between.
