One of the 2 worst Super 8's I've ever had the misfortune of staying in (the other was in western NY state many years ago). 1st, the appearance of the place is very unattractive. But even worse: the backdoor cardswipe was loose to the point of almost falling off & didn't open with my card; the room door chain lock... more

I was very disappointed and upset in getting a Smoking Room when I specifically booked a Non- smoking Room back on June 28, 09. We had the worst night, it smelled so bad of stale cigarettes, when I went to the front counter to ask for the Non smoking room I booked, she stated that they were all booked up... more

Don't make my mistake! I knew I was taking a chance, but this motel was worse than I could have imagined. More SRO than motel, it featured a bathroom that REEKED of urine and other people's hair between the sheets. I could go on but I don't need the flashback. I'd steer clear of staying in Arcata's motels altogether unless... more

Have stayed at this hotel many times. Just keeps getting better. HA HA Rooms are generally clean. Bathroom had plumbing issues Refrigerator, micro wave. Refrigerator was not working. Don’t know if the micro wave did or not. They both used the same outlet: could only use one at a time. Air conditioner didn’t work right, ended up opening a window... more

I visit Arcata often (it's my old hometown) and I usually stay at the Motel 6 as it's always the cheapest and it has an outdoor pool, which is nice because as a native I'm used to swimming in marginally chilly weather. Ah, but this trip no swim time, and I had experienced annoyances at M6 -- mostly from noisy... more

I stayed here for two nights and for the price it can't be beat. The rooms and carpet are a little worn but nothing too bad. It was clean enough, I slept well and can't complain. All I was looking for was a clean, quiet and affordable place to sleep at night and this was it. I will definitely stay... more

This hotel is a joke. Hotel management wanted to put me in a room next to the front lobby and facing a McDonald's drive thru lane. I said no way and asked for another room. The room they gave me was on the south side of the hotel facing the Best Western Hotel. The bathroom was tiny. The refrigerator made... more

Stayed here one night with my parents after seeing the redwoods. The rooms were totally unremarkable but clean, with good wifi service in room. Based on reviews I was worried that it would be a dump, but everything was fine. The people at the counter were nice and helpful. Continental breakfast was better than many chain hotels. more

This motel does not want to provide 24 hour coffee as they are required to by franchise regulations. Air conditioner in room does not get cool enough and they do not want to fix it. Hotel requires a $50 deposit for cash customers. Stay somewhere else. more
