Great location, uncomfortable beds

The desk staff was friendly and helpful. We originally had one room booked, but because of plumbing issues they had to put us into two separate rooms, which was fine. The beds were very uncomfortable. They need new mattresses. Carpets could also do with a refresh.

Enjoyable stay

An aging hotel that owners have done their best to update. No AC, but do you really need it in Arcata? It would be nice if the windows had screens. We would stay again but only for one night. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Give it a try

Great historic hotel and great price. Right in the center of Arcata Plaza - so lots of cute shopping and restaurants. The sushi place connected to the hotel was tasty. The room we had suited our needs and the bathroom had great water pressure. Our "view" faced the other rooms and part of the roof which was a bummer but we also didn't hear any of the street noise.

We had a good experience in a historical hotel. It was fun to step back in time for a little bit. The hotel staff was very helpful and courteous. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys something a bit different.

I will book again

Historical building, small but clean room. Best water pressure I have ever experienced for a hotel stay, I will go back for it 100%. Very convenient location. Bed and Pillow have opportunity to improve.

Breakfast was not very good. Shower curtains don't hold in water. We always had to dry the floor after. Fortunately, there are drains in the floor. Square is a little noisy.

I highly recommend this hotel. I’ve been looking for a hotel that is safe with easy walkable distance to restaurants when I travel through on work. Highly recommend staying here. There are so many restaurants to choose from in the area that are walkable. And beds were comfortable and the hotel was very clean. The staff was also amazing and they had a good variety of food that was well stocked for their breakfast.
