I always stay here when visiting Friday Harbor. Not fancy, just nice care shown with the little things. Very convenient, quiet, clean. Staff is helpful & friendly.

The inn is near downtown of Friday harbor. Price is great!
For some reason, I made my reservation for the wrong day. The gal that checked me in was very accommodating and even upgraded us to a King sized room. Thanks soo much. you saved our weekend.

Great Value. The rooms are basic, but very clean. Friendly, helpful staff.
Overall our stay was nice. Our room has two bathrooms which was very convenient especially if you are sharing a room with friends.

This is my second stay in Orca Inn. It was definitely okay at a lesser cost. The location is convenient and the room was cozy. The lay-out was okay but it would be better if we have other options for the tv shows and a coffee station per building would be a great add-on.
