Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Hotel is conveniently located. Front desk staff could not be kinder. Rooms are rundown, poorly lit, in tough shape. Also, bathroom was not truly clean when we checked in. And the bathroom was not fully stocked each day. We had to keep asking for soap, shampoo, etc. And one day, they even forgot to make the bed. Overall, an extremely disappointing experience. And not inexpensive. This hotel should do better.

Downtown historic building and rooms. Clean and enjoyable in a 1910 kind of way. We would stay there again. Arcata is interesting and the hotel is in the geart of it

Great location, but old and tired

The hotel has a great location right on the town square. Has a classic old hotel feel. But also feels old and tired. You can easily hear your neighbors. Small space heaters provided to heat the room. The continental breakfast was at best mediocre. Not sure I would stay there again.

Great stay

We stay here every time we come into Arcata. It is clean and charming, beds are comfy and I love the clawfoot bathtubs in the room. The building is over 100 years old so each room has it's only personality.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel definitely had charm but is obviously old. The staff were cordial and friendly. My room had no thermostat or hair dryer. There is no parking associated with the hotel and though the hotel does provide a parking pass to avoid the 2 hour parking constraint, finding parking is challenging especially on Fridays when parking in the square is prohibited due to the farmers market on Saturday.

Cool hotel

Hotel attracts is cool. It's old and funky, but clean. It's right on the plaza where the freaky action happens. Breakfast could use some work, but there's good restaurants near by.

The hotel and staff were great. I checked in after 8pm and there was no parking near the hotel. I had to grab the basics from my suitcase and walk two blocks past bars and a liquor store where people were “hanging out.” The smell was horrible. I was alone and I did not feel safe. I checked out early the next morning and there were numerous parking places near the hotel. Parking spaces should be “marked” for “hotel customers only,” especially with carrying bags/luggage. I felt like a “target.”

In the life of Arcata

Great stay on the downtown plaza. Great nearby shopping and food! A mile from Cal Poly Humboldt. We had noise from the restaurant under our room til 10 pm. Lots of noise from protest on the square during 10/7 during the day. No issues with parking in town - it’s free. It felt safe and friendly. Breakfast is lackluster. The people are all awesome.
