Wonderful stay. We were up visiting our grandchildren. Asked if they could come over and swim for a while. The woman at the desk said that wouldn’t be a problem. Everyone was very accommodating. Our room and adjacent areas were spotless. Will definitely be back.

We had so much fun here. The pool and hot tub were awesome. It was quiet and clean and the staff were very kind. Only problem was the toilet wasn't working well and then plugged. When we reported this, we were given 2 different dirty plungers to unclog it ourselves. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

And the desk clerk was friendly. Overall the stay was ok. The property is quiet and safe. The tile floor in the entry and bathroom were extremely dirty like they haven’t been mopped in a while, the bathroom sink nozzle barely flowed and the a/c put out a horrible smell like the filters haven’t been changed in a long time. Smelled like a dirty, wet pet. None of these things affected my stay but can easily be addressed by the owner/management to make the place a bit better.

Great Hotel for Campus Tour

This was a great and clean place for weekend or overnight stay. The breakfast is a 6/10, they do offer hot food, cereal, oatmeal, and coffee. We toured the Cal Poly campus and found the location to be close to the campus.

Terrible

I stayed at the Comfort Inn and Arcata California February 28, 2025 the Jets in the hot tub didn’t work I just drove almost 500 miles and that’s what I was looking for I was told there was a hot tub and I needed the Jets for my back. The TV in the bedroom every five minutes half of the screen would be covered up with some kind of advertisement for voice recognition HDMI I don’t know. They said they would heat up the pool at 3:00 PM from 6 PM it was still freezing we couldn’t even swim. I will not be going back to any comfort Inn ever again.

What i did not like was expedia charging me the full amount (the innkeeper got nothing) for the last night of my reservation which expedia prevented me from cancelling for refund 4 days before that night. Total rip off by expedia.
