Northwoods Motel

nothing.

this is the grossest place ive ever stayed and I had traveled the world.

Close to the border and also to blain Can walk around. Nice Indian restaurant and gas stations next door. Coffee in room and also in the office. Really nice man-owner.

Nothing really, simple clean accommodations. Will stay again

Simplicité

Le micro-onde ne marche pas

The rooms have been recently renovated. For a motel, the room was spacious, comfortable, and clean with an excellent, quiet, and secluded location not too far from the towns main street and by the Canadian border.

The only problems had to do with the bathroom and sink located outside of the bathroom. The sink had a soap dispenser on the wall, although a genius idea, it did leak soap throughout the day which left a little puddle on the counter. The bathroom did not have a fan inside, which made it very humid after taking a shower. The door would then absorb the humidity, expand, and would not close unless you put some force into it. The water handle inside the tub would fall off if you pulled it towards you. The "H" hot and "C" cold water indicators were also wrong. If you put the nozzle on "H" it would be cold, and "C" was for hot.

Ataff was excellent and the rooms very nice. Coukd use some updates, but overall very nice place to stay. We would stay there agsin.

Location

Rooms could be better kept. Seems like it is a beaten down property

Was perfect for what we needed which was a one night stay near the border. For a two star hotel, it was fine. The staff was very friendly and had no issues with the room.

We have been coming for some years. Rooms have been redone a couple of years ago. They are quite comfortable.

Prices have gone up. Since breakfast is not offered, the combination of cost of room and eating out, we can pay for a hotel with breakfast included.

It was very quiet and was in an area that made it easy to walk my dog. The bed was comfortable.

The room had a strange old smell to it. It is possible it came from the air conditioner or the chair as the room itself was clean. They charged an extra $35 for my dog, which I thought was high.

This place has charm oozing from it and the people running it are fantastic and friendly.

It’s a built in the early 1960’s place which is being heroically upgraded/restored, but is not up to date in all ways so keep that in mind.

Friendly staff

Older facilities

Location is terrible.

Price was insane, compared to motels within half an hour in Bellingham.

Staff was helpful. Hotel was quiet and clean. Large room with one King bed and a sofa.

Mattress was hard and bouncy. Pillows were too hard. Some stains on the carpet, but otherwise clean. No cups available for use in the microwave. Trains run by within a half mile, several times in the night, blowing its whistle.

Spacious room with all the basics covered. Very cozy

.

Bed was very comfortable.

no soap or shampoo in shower/toilet room--located in adjoining lavatory area.

The bed was so Comfortable! The staff very responsive!

Price need to be teduce

BREAKFAST OBTAINED OFF SITE.

Premises a bit hard to find.

Liked the hardwood floor. The place was clean. Quiet.

Clean nice room Marie reception lady was friendly

There were not trashcans in bathroom and bedroom either tissue boxes Iron Room door needs a hard lock for inside towels were very old and smelled colorex There was an odor in the room, which I didn’t like

I thought it was a bit expensive.

Too far for restaurants

Excellent bed!

The room looked like it was partially updated.

The bed was so uncomfortable that I ended up sleeping on the couch. There was a bunch of construction material right in front of our room. There was also temporary fencing around the buildings.

Nature

The property manager is not responding to my emails to cancel my booking on time. The moment you paid or you booked, they will never cancel or return any money. They will ignore all your requests.

Location for trip into Canada was excellent. Price was Ok, but expected nicer room.

Wifi was useless, AC was terribly loud, interfering with sleep, room was very dark. Lights flickered. Bathroom wasn't in best condition and hot cold was reversed.

There are some problems in room bathroom have ugly smell , bath tub also stop water otherwise room was good nd clean

Bathroom because of smell nd bathtub block water

The room had been renovated and was clean and comfortable. Great for a one night stay. Reasonably priced. Renovations were underway to replace the old stairway to the second floor rooms.

It was a little farther from the downtown area than I thought it was, but there was a good pedestrian walkway.

we stayed a week prior in a second floor unit and we really liked it. this time we requested to be on the bottom floor due to having too much heavy luggage to cart up the stairs. at check in he was very hesitant to give us the bottom floor and I know why. the upstairs is renovated and had duvets and nice sheets, comfy beds, pillows, etc. downstairs has old comforters and the traditional motel blankets. the mattresses and pillows were still comfy.

bottom floor room had a musty smell in the room itself and the bathroom smelled of urine despite being clean (soaked into tile grout maybe?). upstairs room the previous week had none of these issues and was very pleasant. I think they leave the downstairs for longs stays usually. they didn't want to give us lower level and if we had less luggage we should have taken top floor like they wanted to give us as our previous experience on the top floor was great.

The owners are so sweet! The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The owners work 7 days/ week, smiling and gracious the whole time.

I suggested bigger, softer towels. The showerheads are the older, low-in-the shower type, so we all had to squat to take showers. They are newer owners, and I know these upgrades are expensive, so someday ... I also highly encouraged them to take a vacation. :)

Great location close to the border and walking distance to restaurants etc

Location and on ground floor.

A little run down looking.

Bookin. Com unfortunately made an error when I was filling out the app. I booked the 27th for some reason the computer switched it to the 28th. So if you ask how my stay was on the 28th. I wasn't there. My stay on the 27th was good.

Internet reception was terrible.

Close to the boarder

Staff not around when trying to check out

The structure style was a drive up motel however the inside of the room was updated (except the shower) and was cute and comfortable.

Behavior of staff was awesome

Location and how clean it was.

Nothing really - it had all I needed

The manager was helpful. But there was a launguage issue.

Communication. The parking lot was not plowed so the trucks that use this motel got stuck and a wrecker had to be called.

This was super convenient to the border crossing. The beds were comfortable. The TV worked fine. The office staff were friendly. In fact we were a little late checking in on our first night but he opened the door and made us feel welcome anyway.

The heat didn't work the first night. It seemed to only blow cold air even when set as high as 85. I finally turned it off thinking the room would be "warmer" without the cold air blowing. It was still quite chilly in the room but better. The next night i turned it back on to see if i would have the same problem. That seemed to reset it because it warmed up right away.

The place was close to several gas stations. Conveniently situated close to I5

Nothing

TV was not working.

It was nice. Have free parking.

It’s mentioned on booking.com that they serve breakfast but they don’t !

It was really clean and quiet.

Room was clean and reasonable.

The stay was very good. Enjoyable Moments. Staff was great.

Non

Close to the border.

condition of property.

Very good

Nothing

Location. A 5 min walk to Peace Arch Park, Easy to get to border crossing in the morning. Room was very clean and comfortable. Very quiet from outside noises.

Too many plugged in things had lights (to show it was on) which kept the room well during the night. Resisters keep clicking. Annoyances.

It was close to BC and it was very close

Nothing worth mentioning. Location for us was good, room was clean and staff were friendly

The staff was extremely helpful.

I overall liked everything about the property.
