“It was just a one night stay and was perfect for what I needed.”

Simple and effective

“Good spot for an overnight”

I liked how clean it was and how welcoming the staff were.

“Fun, retro, dog-friendly hotel in a charming neighborhood—who could ask for more?”

We love staying here. The office staff are friendly and accommodating. We like the little amenities offered for our dog’s stay—towels, dishes, sheet for the bed, biscuits. The lounge in the office is cozy and comfortable. The grounds are very attractive and the hotel itself is cool, super-clean, and beautifully renovated. Shower is perfect. The neighborhood is charming and filled with houses built in the 1900s. Elizabeth Park, a few blocks away, is a serene oasis.

“Mostly pleasant stay but for the price could have been better”

good coffee in morning in office, attractively decorated, pleasant staff, comfortable bed

“Low grade motel, not as nice as the marketing”

Easy to find

“Nice stay in a wonderful town!”

Clean, comfortable, easy parking, good location, friendly staff

“Great stop for a short stay”

Clean, functional space, convenient location

A clean, comfortable hotel with a retro vibe. Very nice! It is located in a walkable neighbourhood close to downtown. I plan to stay here again on my fall trip to Bellingham.

The customer service is outstanding Thanks Belle!

“Clean and tidy place for one night”

Just off the beaten track but very walkable to everything and bus stop at front door. If you don’t like walking or using public transport. You do need a car.

All was good but a little high in price as everywhere

“Great motel, excellent location!”

Great motel! We loved the location - there were beautiful treed streets close by for dog walking and we could walk to the downtown in 20 minutes or so. The room was very comfortable and we enjoyed sitting outside to have our coffee in the lovely green space . All rooms are dog friendly and I really appreciated this! The hotel I used to stay in had only certain rooms as dog friendly rooms. Sometimes I would book on booking.com and note that I was bringing a dog only to get there and find the room they had assigned for me was not dog friendly.

Dog friendly, and location. Easy walk to downtown. Easy to locate from the highway.

“Nice place”

Lots of space, nicely updated. Good Wifi and comfy bed. Very quiet.

“I have children living in B-ham, stayed @ most of the hotels and have a new favorite: Heliotrope!”

Clean, accessible & charming.

“Would definitely stay here again - thanks guys!”

The bed was super comfy, and the staff was really wonderful. The outdoor amenities were really cute - and would be fun to partake in with kids, pals or a partner (I was sadly in town for work and didn't get a chance). The cozy and lobby were a pleasure to grab coffee in - loved the stoked fire every morning! The rooms look just like the photos - no surprises :)

“Great Room.”

Very comfortable. We did experience some road noise but ear plugs were provided. Kettle is available if you ask at Reception. There are no mugs so bring your own. Very spacious room with a good shower.

Facilities were great, staff were super helpful and the communal area was nice.

“Great place to stay within easy reach of the Canada / US border”

very helpful manager and staff. Walking distance to a couple of restaurants.

“A basic but nicely redecorated motel about a mile from downtown restaurants.”

Quiet Efficiently organized interior Easily accessible room Place to sit outside Place to store our bikes
