We really loved this hotel. Our room was very nice and clean. We were glad that the hottub was open until midnight. Nice friendly counter staff. Quiet area. It was just the WIFI that was spotty. I was able to connect the first night and the next morning but couldn't for the rest of our time, so I had to go to the lobby. Coffee available all day/evening was nice as well.

Unfortunately, it was very noisy. The issue was not preventable because Bellingham was conducting road work at night and we could hear it from our room. Additionally, it was NFL playoff weekend and there were families running up and down the hallway until after 11:00.

They do a good job, everything was clean and in good repair. Staff was friendly. Rooms were fairly quite. Swimming pool was fairly small. OK for the kids to play in or to do aerobic exercise but you are not going to swim laps. Easy access onto Meridian so easy to get in and out for wherever you needed to go. The breakfast was bar was well stocked, precooked standard fair eggs, cereal, bagels, sweet rolls, yogurt. etc. Will definitely stay there again when we are in the area.
