Not worth the stay

This is only a place I would stay as a last resort. The location is good, but the experience was poor. Our room was so loud that we could not sleep. The icemachine sounds like it might take off for space all night long. People were talking in the halls and lobby late into the night. The breakfast was cheap bread and two cereal options. It was truly the cheapest food options with very little selection. The rooms are small. The front desk staff were polite but in the end the manager was not helpful.

For a non-smoking hotel, the place reeked of pot. In the morning there were some type of beetle bugs on top of the comforter.

Super 8 stay for two with dogs

It was super convenient to have a fully stocked grocery store and many amazing restaurants right across the street. The bed was comfortable and house keeping staff were on top of offering new linen and towels. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere overall. I've stayed here several times over the years and all improved experience. Will stay here again while in town. Internet and television are great.

This hotel is in a great location, right near a shopping center, and several restaurants, with close access to the freeway. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable as well as the pillows. Surprised to have a mini fridge and a microwave in the room, that was nice. The breakfast in the morning is quite good, with waffles, toast, cereal, bananas, hard-boiled eggs, juice. There is no elevator so you have to use the stairs to get to the second floor. The only negative was my shower. The drain was clogged, so water kept filling up the tub as I was showering. I reported this to the front desk and they never fixed it for three days. Even after I asked a second time, they said it was on the maintenance list, but never was taken care of. This is a dealbreaker for me and would prevent me from staying here again. There are several other motels in the area and I will choose one of them next time.

The staff was great and extremely helpful. This place doesn’t have an elevator but the room and the facilities were clean. Parking lot is in the back and it was a long walk to the room but other than that, worth the money and you’re right across and next to food options!

The hotel seemed old and in need of renovation. I did not feel safe in that area. The seating outside looked like it has been there since the hotel opened. Looked pretty nasty.

Great comfort at surprising good price

It’s a no frills hotel. Really easy walk to room. Very comfortable bed and quiet room. Good breakfast was easy and uncrowded. Definitely best deal in Arcata or Fortuna all around

First of all the staff was very polite and kind. The room we stayed at, was very clean. The fridge, microwave and coffee pot were also very clean. It was definitely safe although there are a lot of homeless people in the area. The breakfast area was very clean as well. I’ve stayed at other Super 8 hotels which they only offer burned coffee but this hotel had many options. Would definitely stay here again!

Good budget friendly place

Good budget-friendly accommodations. The room was clean and spacious. It was also pretty quiet although there was some noise from the hallway and other rooms. Breakfast only had a few items, waffles, toast, cereal, oatmeal, and bananas. Several places to eat nearby, some homeless people in the area.

What you get for cheapest room in Arcata..

My room was within 20 ft of the McDonalds 24 hour drive thru….room was worn and a bit grubby. Stains in the tub like some had been marching with their boots. Made me want to take a shower AFTER taking a shower!
