Needs Work

We enjoyed being in Arcata, with its great shops and dining options and a wonderful grocery store right up the street. However I felt the hotel could have amped up their game. The breakfast options were lackluster, the breakfast area was cold and devoid of anything comfortable. The layout of our room was haphazard. I had nothing on my side of the bed to put my iPad or phone on. The desk people were not very welcoming or warm, they hardly even smiled. All in all, not the best experience.

Historic building in a great location. Everything about the room except TV & bed was a time capsule from the early to mid 20th century, it appears. If you appreciate historic sites, you will find this place a good place to stay.

The hotel is really cool from an architectural/historic perspective. The staff was nice and the room was clean as was the property. The breakfast was extremely limited and as we arrived in the morning one of the homeless people had just finished emptying the entire stock of toast and walking off. I was traveling with a child which got to witness 3 inebriated vagrants get into a fight while yelling obscenities in the town square in front of the hotel. Not an hour later, from our room we couldn't ignore the screams of yet another fight that had broke out between a woman and another vagrant which involved more obscenities. This is not a direct reflection of the hotel but it appears the local authorities are okay with allowing this behavior to go on in the area, day and night, as families try to go about their business.

Good place, given the value price. Bed mattress/pad was a bit soft, felt slanted. Antique shower would be a challenge for older people. Small round toilet bowl: tiny for anyone over 5'9". Breakfast barebones. Area around hotel: not much activity other than homeless people in square and alley behind hotel. Quiet after 10pm though, except for some younger people screaming argument at 1:30am in alley.

We had great service at Hotel Arcata. Our teen didn’t sleep well on the pull out sofa and the hotel helped us find a great fix. We really appreciate their quick and quality solution.
