It is budget friendly but would not stay again!

This is an older property and not as described in the pictures. I did not feel safe. I would definitely not stay again and we debated leaving and sleeping in the car at a rest stop. Although it was a non smoking room, it reaked of smoke. The next morning we found tweezers purposely up against the driver side front tire and had we not noticed, it would have punctured the tire.

The room is great and the bed comfortable. The furniture is older and quite elegant. The wallpaper is aging, the carpet, too. Nice bath tub with massage jets. A bit overpriced. But I like it!

The curtains were excellent; I almost slept through check-out, they kept my room so dark! The price and location were also excellent; I was right across the street from a great teriyaki place and less than ten minutes from the drive-in I made the trip for in the first place. If I ever want a hotel in Oak Harbor again, this will be my first pick.

The Acorn Fell Far From the Tree

Local law enforcement advised us not to leave anything in our vehicle. Area is near homeless services and has many transient people walking through the property and staying there. Lobby and room smelled like smoke. Chairs in room had stains and had not been cleaned in a long time. Towels were threadbare, appeared to ready to fall apart, and had permanent marker drawings on them. Bedding had holes in the blankets. The beds were ok, we slept fine.

The continental breakfast was simply muffins and weak coffee. The linen was not freshly washed and the mattress was uncomfortable. For some reason on our last day at the hotel, there was a homeless woman sleeping in one of the chairs in the lobby. She was extremely fragrant and her scent was evident upon entering the lobby area. On a positive note, it's close to everything.

We were very comfortable and had a great night sleep for a very low price despite the property being just off the highway. We will stay here again during our travel through.
