    bedside "table" and one plug
    April M.

    This hotel is decorated in a minimalist style, to say it nicely. On the plus side, the beds are comfortable and they do have a mini-fridge. Our complaints come from the lack of outlets between the beds and the smallest table - no, actually it's only a shelf, between the beds. There are 2 queen size beds, so technically, there could have been four people staying there. We were just 2. That being said, we both have CPAPs. The shelf was too small to fit both CPAPs. Also, there is only one outlet. It comes with one USB outlet, too. Unfortunately, we each had one phone and one tablet. (Not to mention the CPAPs) The USB could only accommodate one phone, everything else had to be across the room. The reading light over the bed was a joke. It was certainly too dark to read by. If you are going to put 2 queen beds in a room, then the room should accommodate the needs of potentially four people, but at least two. We will never stay here again!

    Raw wood plank shelving.  Safe under tv is a nice touch

    Very recently updated hotel, reopened a few weeks ago. Kitschy exterior facade updated with new paint & wood plank details. The interiors were face-lifted using unpainted plywood planks for shelving but the unpainted plywood sheets covering the ceiling was not very attractive. However, it was better than looking at old, dated popcorn ceiling. Attractive, colorful enameled wall hooks to hang damp towels & coats & modern colorful artwork made the rooms look modern & cheerful. There was no closet in the room. Room & bathroom were clean. A large stainless steel kitchen sink & nice single serve k-cup coffee maker with adorable aqua color retro-mini refrigerator complemented the room. The convenient location on the main drag, Commercial Street was close to grocery stores & restaurants. Two gripes, there was only one lamp with a single light bulb that swung either left or right between two queen beds. Only one person on one bed was able to read at night. Second, is that the smart tv was inconvenient if you do not subscribe to hulu, netflix, etc. Hotel provided "Pluto tv" which only showed old, old tv shows like Twilight Zone, Sanford & Sons, Golden Girls, etc. No access to MSNBC or local, national or international news.

    Nice slab quartz countertop and new fridge

    This is a very clean, newly complete hotel. It was only a couple minutes away from the ferry, so I was able to get a truly full day in the islands by staying here the night before. It's a great alternative to spending half your day in line at the ferry dock and then having to cut your island day down to only 4-5hours before you have to get back in line to catch the ferry home. This place had a very nice lady at the front desk that was up early to ensure we had a great experience and help us with anything we needed. I highly recommend this place because it's new, it has a great bed and interior finishings, and the price was hard to beat anywhere in the area. You will not regret staying here!

    I'm giving this place 4 stars, not because it is a 4 star hotel but because it is suprisingly very nice and rooms are nice. Our room for the night was $109 dollars. Outside doesn't look like much but all the rooms where spacious and nice and clean. Only down side was they didn't have continental breakfast. But if you need a place to stay and on a budget this is the place. I would definitely stay here again.

    See all

We enjoyed the proximity to the town and the amazing view of the water from the rooftop deck. The kids enjoyed the freedom to wander around town and look in the shops, and enjoyed the game store. We watched the parade that must have had everyone in town participating! We are not from a small town. This was fun for us. The king-sized bed was comfortable, and we had a room with a soaking tub and a giant shower. The pull-out couch was "ok" according to my son. One thing I will say that was missing was a common area indoors for people to meet up and socialize outside of the restaurant. We have traveled often with these families, and we like to find areas to play cards and spend time together. The food at the restaurant was good. We had a poor experience with one of the rooftop bartenders. He looked like he had been there a long time and really had no interest in answering questions or engaging with the town. His younger companion bartender was friendly and welcoming. Advice: In the evening, it cools down tremendously on the rooftop, so you will need blankets even though there are a couple of fireplaces for ambiance.

We arrived in our big shred truck and the first thing I was asked by the front desk lady was if I had just arrived in the big truck and it was not saying in the parking lot over night right?!! Uhh ya, usually when you drive a vehicle to a hotel you park it in the parking lot. I was then told that usually when people drive larger vehicles they notify them ahead of time and so on. So she goes and gets the manager that proceeds to tell me multiple time people always call ahead (ok no need to keep telling me something that SHOULD have been done a long time ago) how all the rooms and parking spaces are all taken for the night and on and on. My husband then comes around and says that he will move it no problem. She proceeds to talk over him and keeps saying the same thing. At this point I am ready to just go to a different hotel because of how extremely rude they are. Now I have no problem owning up to I should have called ahead however I don't drive an oversize vehicle for my every day car so I didn't realize or even think of this issue. It was a Thursday night in May!! I get if you are just concerned about having enough space for all your guests but there is a way to approach and talk to people. My everyday job is scheduling and sales so I talk to people non stop and being rude is NEVER a way to talk to someone! That being said we left at 6:15am on Friday morning and our truck was taking up 1 and a quarter of another parking spot and in their two small parking lots there was at least 7 or 8 empty spots available!!! The room was nice and clean and the young man that assisted my husband with parking was very nice however my experience with the rude front dest lady and EXTREMELY rude manager will not have me going back! I'll take my business elsewhere!

My reservation, number 100480, was confirmed for two adults at $249 plus tax. The reservation confirmation specifically instructed guests arriving after 10:00 p.m. to call the inn on the day of arrival. I did exactly that while at SeaTac preparing to drive to Anacortes. At approximately 7:44 p.m., I was told that late arrival instructions would not be sent until 9:00 p.m. because the property was busy and full. I simply asked if the instructions could be provided earlier because I was already traveling toward the hotel and wanted to make sure I could access the room I had reserved more than four months earlier. Instead of providing the check in instructions, the situation escalated and the inn canceled my confirmed reservation at approximately 7:59 p.m. on the night of arrival. I received cancellation confirmation 136279 documenting the cancellation. That left my wife and me without our reserved lodging while already traveling. I had to scramble to find another hotel and ultimately booked the Fairfield by Marriott in Burlington for $217.70. The replacement hotel also put us approximately 35 minutes farther away from the Anacortes ferry terminal, creating an unnecessary inconvenience for our ferry travel the following morning. What makes this especially disappointing is that I did not miss a deadline, fail to appear, or ignore the hotel's instructions. I contacted the inn precisely because its own confirmation told late arriving guests to do so. A guest with a confirmed reservation should be able to ask how to access the property after hours without having the reservation canceled that evening. I have traveled extensively and understand that hotels occasionally encounter operational problems. What matters is how those problems are handled. Canceling a confirmed reservation on the night of arrival after the guest follows the property's own late arrival instructions is not an acceptable way to handle the situation. I would not recommend relying on a reservation here when ferry travel or other time sensitive plans depend on having your room available.

My friends also had difficulty sleeping due to the bed quality and the cold from the thin walls as well. Room quality: I got upgraded from the Lighthouse room to the Oar House which had two beds to choose from. It also was missing the main blind facing the outdoor seating area. Even with the thermostat at 70, I found myself shivering in the middle of the night due to thin walls (I could hear the cars zoom by from the back of the house in the room and the windows were single paned). The bathroom wasn't connected to the room, rather it was across the hall that required stepping outside into the cold, though still under a roof. There are no channels to watch, only DVDs which I counted there were 36 to choose from. There was no VCR to use but a bunch of videos to choose from. WiFi is not accessible in the Oar House so I was told to go to the room where breakfast would be served to get any internet, which was across the backyard into the other side of the house. Food: it is all frozen food that you heat yourself. There were Schwann's omelets, pancakes, sausages, frozen Greek yogurt and eggo waffles. The cereals available were mini wheats, raisin bran, corn flakes and others. There is a keurig that only had coffee available. Overall the view is beautiful and the decor is very nautical and unique with pictures of Oggie during his fisherman days also it is 5 min driving to the ferry. But it isn't worth the $135 a night due to poor sleep quality from thin walls and frozen food. At $50 it is definitely worth it just for the view itself but the location isn't in walking distance of anything except for the ferry.

We called Salish Inn 9 times from 7/31/26 to 8/5/26 to attempt to ensure that there was no reservation and that we would not be charged, but we had to leave voice mail messages that were never returned. We were charged $464.14 on 8/7/26. We visited Salish Inn and spoke with the receptionist Lily and explained the situation. She said she would have her manager, Samantha contact us during the following business week. While driving away, at 9:12 am, we were contacted by Katie, the person we had spoken with on 6/30/26, to say that we could stay that night. When we replied that we already had a room, she stated that she was going to charge us a cancellation fee in addition to the amount she had already charged us for 2 nights. A charge for $218.33 subsequently appeared on our charge card. Katie then cancelled our reservation for 3 rooms over the upcoming Labor Day weekend.

We followed up with calls that mostly went unanswered, and when we did finally get a response, the staff was rude, dismissive, and unwilling to help and hung up on us multiple times. Even worse, the management was unprofessional and disrespectful. They not only ignored our concerns but also made veiled threats to charge us additional fees when we pressed them to fulfill basic services we had already paid for AND confirmed multiple times prior to our arrival. They tried to charge us for additional people in the room at a HIGHER rate that is even listed on their website. They were rude and were very shady and secretive as if they were facilitating illegal activity. The manager refused to give us her name and should not be in a position in any customer service field. The mistreatment of both elderly members of our group was particularly disturbing -- staff spoke down to them and brushed off their needs, which was both cruel and discriminatory. Because they refused us service in renting cot, my 77year old father slept on the floor one night and slept in the car the 2nd night. What a disgrace and shame on the hotel staff and their actions!
