Staff were friendly and room was clean. Hotel has a gate around it to protect your car overnight. Hallways smelled like pot most of the time but room didn’t smell. I called ahead to confirm what was in the hot breakfast before booking because we have gluten issues. First morning was a Saturday and there was a sign saying “no hot breakfast”. The next day they had powdered eggs and sausage (each piece cut into thirds) served in a tiny warming dish like you’d get at Kohls on Black Friday. There was no juice any of the days.
I stayed three nights at this hotel in room 208, which I found to be a pretty standard Super 8 experience. Good value for a no frills room, basically clean, not spotless but acceptable. Bathroom was run down, with the finish worn off of the tub and a hole in the back of the door. They have made some efforts to spruce the place up, but it could use with some modernization. TV was pretty old but had a decent selection of channels. Carpet could/should be replaced, as there was a unidentifiable sour smell in the room the whole three days, despite my efforts to air the room out. No pool or fitness facilities. They offer free coffee and granola bars until 9:30AM, nice touch for a budget hotel. Location was very good, right off the 101 freeway within five minutes of downtown Arcata, next to McDonalds and across the street from other restaurants and a supermarket. Staff were all excellent, from my experience. As I said, a good value compared to other hotel prices in the area, just be aware that it’s very basic. Tip - if you book on Agoda, you can save some money on the room.
The staff was very helpful, friendly and accommodating! The rooms were very clean and well put together. 👏 All together I was very happy with the price and location downtown and restaurants. Thanks again!
