It's a neat historic hotel located on the town square which is a great location in the middle of all the shops and restaurants. They had a great farmers market on the Square on Saturday. Very cool. The hotel is old but classic. The room was large and the bed comfortable. It's dated but clean. They could probably do away with the dated wall paper and it keep it's charm. Staff very friendly. We had a nice time. For us much classier than a corporate run of the mill hotel

Booked four rooms about a month ahead. Our room - 211 - was very small and cramped, and the bathroom door would not open all the way because it hit the toilet. I didn’t think to check the others - I figured it was an old hotel so this was how it was - but as we were leaving I could see that the other rooms were much more spacious. The annual craft fair was held that weekend (unaware of this when we booked) so rates were apparently higher than usual, but $218 for this room was poor value.

The hotel is very charming. The front desk staff is a bit wooden. No microwave or fridge. The neighboring park is a bit overrun with homeless.

I love this hotel because of its historical significance. It’s charming and comfortable. Microwaves and refrigerators are not available in rooms, but that’s okay for this type of historical place. The staff is friendly and helpful. The restaurant downstairs was excellent. More cafes and pastries around the area than we could try during our 2 day stay. I will be back.

staff was decent, some more hospitable than others. this hotel is uncomfortably outdated. the carpet & synthetic floors look yellow and dirty. the area around the tub was rusty. no screens on the windows which is fine, but then spiderwebs right at them. smelly which honestly is probably the carpet. the bathroom ceiling looked moldy. need a little fridge in the room since food options at night are super limited and I had brought yoghurt & pizza that I had to throw away, but I could have eaten it if there was a fridge. the pillows are hard. the style of the hotel is nice but needs to be renovated and deep cleaned. I feel upset about this experience. for how much this costs, I expect at the very least a clean space. the complimentary breakfast should have at least eggs. it was toast waffles & yoghurt. coffee was super light & unenjoyable.

We were on the second floor and there is no A/C, which is fine. We opened the windows because it was so hot, but there were no screens and it was very noisy as it seemed to be a popular area at night. A lot of homeless people in the area but the park across the street was kept very clean. Liked the layout of the hotel suite but be aware it’s over 100 years old so just know that going in. Very nice staff. It was a great building, just a little awkward with a pet and the windows open.

Rm 231... By far the best hotel shower I've ever experienced, and I've traveled the country coast to coast & border to border annually for 20 years staying in 100's of hotels. This stay was for pleasure. I joined local friends to peruse the Friday market and the Saturday Farmer's Market. Parking can be tricky. Some stress leaving my vehicle parked on the street. No issues occured. I'm not finding any reasons to book elsewhere on my next Arcata visit.
