"I wanted to take a bath so I got a couple of the Clorox wipes to wipe down the bath tub. The first swipe I did came up with debris and hair. It grossed me out, so I decided to take a shower. The water lapped at my ankles because there was so much hair clogging the drain!! Then I dropped something behind the nightstand and found tons of dust there. Looked clean, but was only clean in the middle. "

"It was fine, house was cute but filled with Knick knacks which kind felt like staying at your grandmas house. Like look but don’t touch anything. Not sure what they meant by walk to old town, everything we did for food, etc was 8-10 minute drive. The streets have no street lights so walking anywhere at night was out. Worked as a base to visit redwoods np and tidal pools which is what we wanted"

Eureka Inn, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"Nice properties, but I could not get the TV to work at all"

Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn

8/10 Good

"Room itself was nice but I did not like having access to room from outside. Did not feel like a secure area. Allyway to the back section we stayed in and it freaked of marijuana and cigarettes butts all over back parking area where we were. Online, it looks like a security fence around hotel but it is only fenced in sections. Not real secure for this area of town."

Hotel Arcata

8/10 Good

"It was how you would consider a historic hotel to be. It was charming, but old. The plumbing didn't drain that well and there was some road noise from traffic on the street, but it was clean, super cute and walkable to everything in the downtown area. There was no hotel parking, but they give you a pass for street parking and we never had an issue finding parking close by. Would definitely stay there again if we were in the Arcata area."

Holiday Inn Express Arcata / Eureka - Airport Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Room was quite comfortable, useful furniture (desk and lamp, good tv with remote, comfortable king bed. Generally looked very well-maintained, with none of the cracks and flaws I've often seen elsewhere. Staff was very professional and helpful. For example, I needed to leave at 4 a.m. to catch a plane and the night person took me over right on time. It is very convenient to the Arcata/Eureka airport (a 5 minute drive, 15 minute walk - though a staff member warned me about walking at night - "animals!" Convenient to Rte 101."
