Yes the room was clean. Staff was extremely helpful. Missed having a second chair in the room to sit on. Loved the little shelf with the double coat hangers as soon as you opened the door. Would have appreciated two more wall mounted bed side shelves on the far side of the two queen beds

Recently renovated, it appeared bright, spanking clean. Many simple amenities made the stay so comfortable and convenient. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Free 24 hour coffee and daily breakfast was also a nice plus. Plenty of parking also. Located on a busy Bellingham boulevard so many convenient businesses. We would definitely stay there again and again.

Everything was fantastic! Staff is very accommodating, the breakfast was fresh and delicious, rooms were clean, and pool was clean and warm. Only complaint was there were ants around the facility but it seemed they were taking corrective measures towards eliminating them.
