We had a very enjoyable 3 day stay. Our only wish was a coffee pot and coffee in our room.

Wonderful place to stay! Based on the price, I was expecting rooms to be much smaller. Our double queen room didn’t have a lot of extra space but it was well laid out with two bathrooms. We had plenty of space for 2 adults, 2 teens and all of our necessary items. Beds and pillows were great - we all slept well. This location worked well for us with ample parking and the grocery store next door. Friday Harbor is small and this hotel isn’t far from the main parts of town. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else, given the cost difference. It’s a really comfy little place if you’re not looking for something fancy. Looking forward to future visits!

The room was small but super comfortable and the cleanliness of the room impressive ! It was evident the staff takes pride in their work with high attention to detail. Location was great close to downtown and right across the street from a food co-op bakery coffee shop with all locally sourced and organic items. I would definitely stay here again !!
