I stayed here because it allows dogs, and my very clean, very well trained therapy dog is with me. The first room they put me in reeked of cat pee. They must have had a male cat that sprayed everywhere, and they haven't cleaned it properly. (Or just ban the cats!) In our new room, I put down towels before... More

The staff was courteous and helpful.The facility is relatively old and the rooms are well appointed, noise level is not bad. The breakfast was ok grade for this kind of motel. In-room coffee was actually better than that in the breakfast room.There is not much seating in the breakfast room

We would stay here again on our way through arcata, but if we were to stay for more than a night we would pick some where a bit nicer, but it was clean and the bed was comfortable even if the room was dated. The people there are very friendly and their continental breakfast was very good, coffee not so... More

When traveling by myself I usually stay at Super 8 because of the expectation of resonable accomidations and resonable room rates. This place is the worst Super 8 I've ever stayed at in any state! The room was run down with a hard as a board bed, not firm, HARD!; and things like two pieces of wood holding up the... More

Read the title, that is all you need to know. But really I never felt safe, there were literally people doing drugs twenty feet from the back door in full view, there were people in the hallway making noise at 3am, and the workers were indifferent to the dark reality of the hotel. The fridge was molding, the windows were... More

any hotel at this exit on 101 is not very safe. The Motel 6 next to the Super 8 is full of transients, drug addicts, prostitutes, and other various homeless people. There are people strolling around at all hours of night. The Super 8 is pretty good about keeping the lot clear of wandering and lost soles, but it's not... More

We were at Supper 8 Arcata, CA for one night late August 2011. The atmosphere from the door at the parking side up to the room was terrible. It was smelly all over; stained carpets, broken furniture (the chair in the room). Un-clean room, old looking towels; every thing pathetic. Our impression about this hotel chain was completely diminished due... More

It's a budget hotel, totally. At least it should be clean and provide a place for a good night sleep. We got none. The room was smelly when we first checked in. We had to turn on the AC since it's hot out there. The room has two full size beds. For 3 adults, we're out of luck, couldn't turn... More
