Summary: Overall our experience was good. Our room was upstairs and next to the road. We kept our windows open for the cool night air. There was a small fan that drowned out most of the noise. Bed was comfortable. Not too hard or soft...no hump in the middle. There were amentities such as microwave, small fridge, coffee maker, toaster, 2 burner stove with utensils, plates, and coffee cups. WiFi was fast all things considered. Water pressure in the shower was great! I'm 5'7" and the water hit me at my chest, so was fine. If you're 6'+, you'll need to duck down a little. Hand soap was provided but no shampoo. Room was clean and tidy. Could use a little facelift, but it had all the comforts needed for a good night sleep. We only stayed one night and brought some of our own food like sandwiches, chips, PB, jelly, and fruit. That worked out great as the local restaurants didn't open until 8am and we were headed out early to Cape Flattery. Best price in town! I would recommend!

Summary: People are great here. Room was clean. It is older and the layout of the room is not very good. The bed was OK. I felt lucky to get a room and would take it again.

Summary: Room was very clean, and had a great view. The room was dated but maintained well. It had an almost full size fridge and a stove which were handy.

Summary: Very kind people both checking in and out. No problems at all. Luckily I stayed here as a result of working over night. I say luckily because I don't think I would've been happy paying for what I got. As I said, everyone was very friendly and helpful when checking in. However, the room is as basic as you can get. The bed was awesome! That much I can say. Micro, TV, and coffee maker were dang near new. The fridge was in great shape and very clean not to mention full size. Wh8ch is good because there ain't anything around to get food at. So go prepared. Also, be prepared to use your phone for pretty much everything.
Bathroom. Uhg...this needs some help. If you're short, you will have no problem with the toilet. I mean short...like four foot short. Otherwise you will be resting your head on your knees. Shower....like taking a shower under a garden hose. A warm one, but a huge heavy stream. The sink area has plenty of light....like an enormous amount of light. Boaters could probably see that light 25 miles out...so make sure you close the curtains. Also, be prepared to do combat with the carpenter ants. They are huge and resourceful. They have techniques to avoid you until you're in bed in the middle of the night.
So big picture. It's dry, comfortable, but at the same time nothing to write home about.

Summary: I was very happy with my room. Being a single female traveler, I was needing something clean and safe. This place was quiet, exceptionally clean, good shower pressure and (with the whole town) provided the sense of safety that was needed. Check in a simple phone call with no hassle as well. There were also two restaurants close by with a wonderful store just down the road. I would stay here again if I was in the area.

Summary: No one was there when I arrived to check in. The room could use some updates, especially a new mattress.
