This was convenient as i needed a place near Western Washington University in Bellingham. The place was fine. It's basic. It's walking distance to several fast food restaurants and a convenience store. There seems to be a bit of a homeless population nearby but i had no problems. If i was staying in Bellingham again i would consider staying here again.

Clean, comfortable and well situated. It’s close to I5 and not very soundproof though. Otherwise it was very good value for the money. And the Mexican restaurant across the street was excellent.

The property was affordable and even offered continental breakfast. For what we needed which was a place to crash for the night that was clean and didn't break the bank it provided just this. The check in process was easy and quick as was check out. int the morning there was enough to eat to get the day started. i would recommend it as a quick stay over hotel
