“A Best Western Plus indeed!”

Everything you expect in a Best Western and then some: a spacious lobby, well-appointed rooms, interior court yard with swimming pool, fine on-site restaurants, comfortable beds, plush towels, concierge-like help at the front desk (with print-outs of directions to get where you want to go). Good central location.

Area recommendations
Go for lunch at the Colophon Cafe in Fairhaven, an Italian dinner at D'Anna's downtown. Stroll the waterfront park.

“Good place to stay in Bellingham”

Very hand hotel to stay in. Close to Interstate 5. Is right next to Fred Meyers which is handly place to pick up forgotten items. Straight "shot" down Lakeview and State Streets to downtown Bellingham.

Area recommendations
Boulevard Park down by the water by Fairhaven which has a beautiful little coffee shop right down on the edge of the water with outside seating. Then a walkway built partly on piers out over the water that goes south for some distance to Fairhaven. On a Sunday afternoon this walkway is quite heavily used but during the week around sunset time, a wonderful place to go for a walk. Be sure to visit the ice cream shop downtown in Bellingham called "Mallards". Yummy ice cream sundaes - a real treat! Unfortunately understand that the Nimbus Restraurant on the top level of the highest? building in Bellingham is closing. There is a beautiful walk along Whatcom Creek starting by the falls.

“Poor Services”

Upon check-in, everything seemed as normal. However, upon opening the ice bucket to go get some ice... a previous guest had left a crushed beer can that had been turned into a "smoking device" in the ice bucket, and the cleaning service failed to check. Aren't ice buckets something that are supposed to be checked and cleaned/replaced? And if they missed something so obvious, what else aren't they doing? I called the front desk and they came to collect it and bring a new ice bucket. However, there was nothing more done. Just a short apology from the guy who came to the room. For the price I paid/night, I expect something much, much better. I don't recommend staying here.
