Northwoods Motel
Good budget motel.
We were just going to be in the area one night so we were looking for a clean, comfortable room for a reasonable price. I had booked and paid online so check-in took only a few seconds. The motel is very close to an I-5 exit, though we never heard any traffic noise from our room. The neighborhood is primarily gas stations with convenience stores with no apparent safety issues. The room was clean, quite spacious, and comfortable, with the necessary amenities. The free breakfast looked as if it would be a bit limited but I wasn't around during breakfast so I can't be sure.
Quality Inn Grand Suites Bellingham
Assign us a room that wasn't ready?
And not know the room wasn't ready until hauling all our stuff to the 2nd floor door -- then told by the desk to just relax (really??) Finally got a room that was ready
La Quinta Inn & Suites Bellingham
Very nice hotel, the best La Quinta Hotel I know.
I definitely recommend this hotel, beautiful and spacious rooms, nice size bathroom, the hotel is pretty new. Next to a major store, close to restaurants, banks, you name it. And spectacular service provided by the personnel starting with the reception area. Finally enough parking. You won't complaint if you choose this hotel.
Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa
Nice and well kept hotel.
Stayed here for 32nd wedding anniversary. Hotel staff very accommodating in providing a beautiful King Suite facing water. Lovely view and well kept suite with every amenity including a fridge, a keurig, but sadly no microwave. That's the only thing that prevented a 5 star rating as the only microwave available was in the downstairs lobby. Otherwise it wonderful amenities including spa, pool, full-size weight room with indoor track, indoor/outdoor pool, indoor & outdoor tennis & basketball courts, small movie theatre, plus 2 great restaurants and lovely views. Would definitely recommend to friends.
