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.

would go again!

booking & check in stream lined and easy, and when the team texted and offered concierge services they weren't kidding! they got back to me promptly about a dinner question that turned out to be the highlight of our entire 2 week vacation. and were also very responsive and helpful when we needed to seek medical help on the island. apart from these services, having the pool there for my kids was awesome post-national parks, and rooms were clean and comfortable for a peaceful night's sleep for my family.

Great location and pretty property. Convenient to walking anywhere and love that there is a little coffee shop on property. Also nice little places to sit down and just relax. Feels like a cozy place among the busy little town. Clean rooms. Two small issues w the place - one was that the cleaning staff was loud and yelling outside of our windows (albeit they were nice) and the second is that it seems like a bit expensive for a fairly basic room. However overall would still recommend the property as they did a nice job with what they inherited!
