Although it said non-smoking it reaked of stale smoke. The carpet had cigarette burns and the bathtub was disgusting. The odor was so gross. The breakfast was 1 waffle that the ftont desk had to make, white or wheat bread and yogurt. They charge an rxtra $15 if you have a room with 2 beds and you use the second bed!! The maintenance had an ac vover outside and it was caked with grime and dust like 2 inches long. From the smell of the room, they have not cleaned their ac covers. They were charging a guy $30 for housekeeping to come during his stay.

Great value

Definitely a budget place with some interesting characters and a multitude of rules such as only one waffle per person for breakfast. Can’t beat the amazing price and free parking, though. Secure WiFi for your room. Mattress is comfy. Rooms are clean.

Our stay at the Bellingham Lodge was a really good experience. We were able to use the hot tub to relax after a long day with family. We appreciated the friendliness of the staff. The upgrades to the room made it feel safe and comfortable. Thanks so much

The Bed Bug Motel

Not only when you walk in is there a foul oder but when you realize what its coming from your heart will sink. Evidence of cockroaches behind the appliances and the scariest of all, Bed Bugs. I put up three of my workers in this hotel and started getting messages and photos from them saying they have bed bugs in the rooms! When I confronted the Manager about these issues she just started screaming at me saying that all my employees brought them in and she will do nothing about it. with the level of infestation in these rooms, there is no possible way that my employees brought them in. The manager started cursing at me and telling me she was going to call her lawyer then hung up on me. Whatever you do, DO NOT STAY HERE!!! You will bring home some unwanted pests. Manager will not release her records of pest control but you can clearly shee in photos that she is just pouring some white powder to try and kill these things saying "I did my own research, I don't need to call anyone!" I wasn't going to leave a negative review because its a Motel and these things happen but after the manager called me and screamed at me telling me its our fault and started threatening me legally, I had to do something. I almost forgot! They are also trying to give expired food to customers as well! I added a photo of that too.

Room clearly smelled of cigarette smoke despite selecting the non-smoking option. Continental Breakfast was instant oatmeal, terrible Bisquick knockoff waffle batter and even worse coffee. Will not stay here again
