8.2/10 Very good! (1,011 reviews)
"Not many options in Arcata, and higher premiums. The staff was great, the room was good enough. The hotel was on skid row, the room smelled like bleach but at least it was clean. One elevator. But it was fine, good enough. Its a couple exits away form town or redwoods."
