for an overnight stay on your way to somewhere else. There aren't as many options as you might expect driving up the California coast, but it was early May and tourist season hadn't started yet. More

This is not a plush place full of amenities, but you shouldn'ntbe expecting that from a best western, or from most places along the red wood highway. I rate this place average to high based upon the other options available in the area and the price I paid which was a prepaid rate for rewards members, a rate that anyone... More

I stayed at the Best Western Arcata Inn for an overnight business trip. The single queen room was large, clean, and well equipped with refrigerator, microwave, and coffeemaker. I asked for a quiet room away from mechanical or stairway noise and the staff was able to accomodate my request. Frommy experience, I would say that the staff was friendly and... More

We stayed here for Humboldt State's Spring Preview. I was a little worried as many families were there for it and I wondered if it would be noisy but we didn't hear a peep from our upstairs room. The room was clean, nice bathroom area - nothing grungy - a plus! Oh, and the shower head is REALLY high. No... More

Stayed here over the past weekend for the Godwit Days Festival in Arcata. The room was clean and comfortable but what most impressed us was the friendly, accommodating staff. For one of our field trips we needed to leave the hotel at 4:30 am. We asked if they would have any coffee ready. They said yes and asked if we... More

The door opens directly to the outdoors, no problem for us at all, I just never know when that is going to be the case. Breakfast was satisfying.... More

I don't know what is happening to Best Western. They're slipping. Only one BW that we have stayed in recently was up to Par. That's the one at the east end of Palm Springs with the 24 hr. pool. The outdoor hottub/pool is at one end of the property away from any rooms. Now This one, we specifically told them... More

We made a reservation online and indicated we had 2 cats. We made our decision to stay there based on how pet friendly everyone said they said they were and because they indicated they were pet friendly on their website. We got to the motel and attempted to check in and were told they don't accept cats. I questioned them... More

After much review from TripAdvisor readers, and a good recommendation from Humboldt University staff, we selected the Best Western Arcata Inn as our choice to stay for 2 nights while scouting the university. Clean. Bedding Clean and soft! Reception staff quick, friendly and helpful. We checked in at just before 4pm, and room was ready. Fresh smelling, no smoke, two... More
