Second time I stayed here, they are usually the lowest rate in the area. I never had an issue here, staff is friendly. The hotel is a tad dated in the common areas, but still feels homey enough, modern bathrooms in the rooms, and classic motel-style floral bed sheets. It feels clean enough. It's in a nice convenient area, alot of food options nearby, gas station across the street and close to freeway, about 1.5 miles from downtown Bellingbam.

I thought it would be fine, the bedding was kinda cute in the photos and the reviews seemed ok (misleading) ... But there were several bugs in the room/ bed, generally dirty throughout and an off-putting odor in the room, halls and lobby (all different smells).

The staff is friendly and helpful and it's easy walking access to a variety of dining options. Rooms are a bit dated and older and they have smoking rooms so the halls have a lingering order of smoke but ok for the price.
