Remodel
The desk was very helpful in getting me an early check in. Much appreciated. The extent of the remodel was played down significantly tho. Truthfully, if I'd known the remodel was so involved I would have opted out of staying there. Otherwise, this hotel is usually spot on in every way.

Always clean and ready to go. Early check-in was easy. Easy access to all areas around Bellingham and dog friendly makes us big fans.
Robert, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Never coming back
Both days we stayed there, The house keeping was yelling back and forth down the hall, starting at 7:30 am. They were opening and letting the doors slam. We thought it was veey disrespectful. The pool and hot tub were closed, that waa one of the main reason we booked there. Bed was really stiff and very uncomfortable. We will not be back.
Richard, 2-night trip
