Historic charm with modern amenities. Situated right on the town square of Arcata. The hotel issues you a parking pass which works everywhere but immediately around the square. Lots of great dining options all within walking distance. The restaurant off of the lobby was excellent. Room was very clean, bathroom was large with a claw foot tub (and amazing water pressure).

I checked in as the recent fire raged a block away. Power had been cut in the surrounding area so any formal check-in could not be accomplished. The staff merely handed me a room key and requested I stop by the desk after power was restored, and at my convenience. My formal check-in was completed hours later. As always, my room was clean, the shower is fantastic, and the hospitality is kind & pleasant.
