• Great location, close to I-5, WWU, Downtown, on bus line.
• Wall paper was peeling, room smelled of smoke, and thin walls.

“ My sister and I stayed here while we checked out the WWU campus. The hotel was in a great location, on the bus line, and tucked off the main street so there was little street noise. However, the room we were in was terrible. It smelled of smoke and the wall paper was peeling off the walls. The walls were really thin. During the night we heard water dripping outside and smacking against a ledge. I got no sleep at this place. Maybe a different room would have been better, but I'm not likely to stay here again. ”

• The room was more nicely decorated than usual, and the bed was comfortable.

“ Beautiful room and bathroom, comfortable king size bed. The pool has a kiddy area for little ones, which I always appreciate. Great experience overall. I would definitely stay here again. ”

• Very clean.

“ Got a very good price from Priceline on the accommodations. But the accommodations were okay. The hotel is a three star very clean. ”

• Good Location.
• Room location not good, very noisy.

“ Hotel location was very good and convenient to local business. The room was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately for us, we were poolside with a slider door facing the pool. Because of this the room was very noisy. The room above us was terribly noisy until 3:00am in the morning. We had a very poor sleep. ”

• It was close to the Western Washington that was a plus for us to visit our daughter.

“It was a great place to stay. Convenient to the college, which was our main priority for the pick of this hotel.”

• The beds were comfortable.
• The pool is in the middle of the hotel, so we were exposed to a lot of the piercing screams of children.

“The outside of the hotel looked like a casino parking lot. Our room was in between the kitchen and the pool and smelled like a combination of halibut and chlorine. It was completely overpriced. If that's a three-star hotel, then I'm Heidi Klum. Our room faced onto the parking lot under I-5. My friend did remark that if you didn't listen too closely, the freeway almost sounded like a river.”

• Liked the complimentary coffee, jazz in restaurant and location.
• Carpet in public areas very stained. Initial room smoky despite no smoking policy in hotel, inside room very noisy from swim pool.

“This hotel had a good location for our needs, however upon check in we were given a very smoke filled room despite having signed an agreement that this was a non smoking hotel! We were moved promptly but but the next room location was inferior as the pool was inside and all those rooms facing the pool were very noisy until 10pm as the sound echoed from families using the pool. The staff were friendly and rooms clean however public areas and stairwells etc. Looked very tired.”

• Restaurant was excellent.
• Business center computers far too slow, and antivirus software needs updating.

“Overall, quite good value. Restful and quiet, even though we had a room overlooking the pool!”

• People were very friendly and the beds were very comfy.
• The pool was not clean,we were taken from our room because of a false alarm.

“The hotel was nice but the pool was a disappointment and we had a fire alarm at night everyone had to leave their rooms and no explanation or apology was given.”

• The indoor pool area is a beautiful feature that sets this hotel apart.

“Clean and quiet rooms, responsive staff, and beautiful lobby and indoor swim/spa area.”

• It was closer to the older waterfront downtown area of Bellingham.
• The room must have recently been changed to non-smoking; it still smelled.

“This is not a brand-new property, but the rooms are adequately sized and the staff is accommodating. It is located right next to the freeway, however, we did not detect any traffic noise. Half of the rooms are made up of a central courtyard overlooking the pool; this could be a noise issue as the pool is indoor. The chlorine smell in that area was quite strong. We only stayed one night, arriving late and checking out at 6:00 am, so did not have the opportunity to enjoy either of the on-site restaurants, whose menus looked interesting and affordable. Overall, a pleasant stay.”

• The room was quiet, cozy and clean with lush beds and linens.
• Someone left us part of a cheeseburger in the fridge!

“Easy access from freeway and plenty of shopping nearby. The rooms are quiet, the bedding plush and I felt real comfortable. Seemed like there were several outdoor enthusiasts staying in the hotel. There were kyakers, older bikers, and super fit, backpack toting professionals, who seemed to be checking in on a good deal and a nice place to explore nature. Best life ever!”

• Good location, clean rooms, and
  comfortable beds.
• Indoor pool was noisy. Kids were
  in there night and day.

“Beautiful lobby, rooms are nice, good location off I-5. The only complaint was the noise of the pool. Kids were in there from early morning till late at night. The pool is indoors so the shouting echoes all over. I suppose there are rooms not by the pool, but the noise was bad for a business traveler or someone actually wanting to sleep. On the other hand the rooms were pretty well insulated.”
