Well maintained property reminiscent of a classic Tahoe getaway. A bit pricey for a quick business trip when I was too busy to fully enjoy the amenities on offer, but I’ll remember it for future visits.

We stayed at the EarthBox Inn for three nights while we biked the San Juans! Lovely spot to come back to each night! Beds and pillows were great and shower was nice. The location is excellent! We never moved our car once we parked it because everything is within walking distance. Had some lovely meals at the brewery which is just blocks away. Highly recommend the EarthBox!!

Room service knocked on door at 8-9am repeatedly after I told them we did not want service. Desk service was even worse, required us to move rooms in middle of stay. The room was old, dated, musty and unclean. Would not recommend for the price.

Excellent location near all of Friday Harbor dining/shopping/excursions. It’s about 4 blocks from the ferry terminal (up a gradual hill). The separate toilet/shower area of the bathroom is really small, so not great if you are a large person. Otherwise, very clean, fridge and microwave, and nice locally made soaps! On-site coffee bar/light breakfast space is nice.

The location is perfect as it’s right in the middle of Friday Harbor. But it’s very pricey for what it’s worth. It’s also extremely noisy as it’s a motel set up so people are constantly walking by.

Great and convenient location with good and free parking. It’s a short walk to everything in Friday Harbor. Breakfast is not included and options are limited but there are nearby restaurants. I think they only have queen sized beds - but ours was nice. I was a little surprised that many places on the island are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays but it is less crowded and quiet on those days.
