Everyone is friendly, the downtown is fun, and most everything easy to get to. The staff at this hotel look after their guests really well, the facility is very nice, and all within easy walking distance to the ferry and downtown. Another benifit, the food is great too! More

On an off-season visit (just before Christmas this year), we decided on Best Western as honestly, compared to other hotels, we felt that as a chain hotel, we couldn't go wrong. And we didn't! We checked in early (as the ferry arrival time decided it!) and we were received by the manager (Ron) himself who also checked us in. In... More

This all-suites hotel is perfect for anyone traveling with children! The room was spacious and perfectly clean. The kitchen was stocked with dishes, silverware and even dishtowels. The bed was very comfortable and the living area had a great flat screen TV and cozy gas stove perfect for staying on the island. Breakfast was perfect, cereal, oatmeal, fresh waffles, yogurt,...

I can't comment on any other room--we only stayed in one. The biggest issue was the bed CREAKED so loud that it was impossible to sleep. Shifting slightly caused a creak loud enough to wake you up--that's not an exaggeration. The room also was a little weird with a garage sale-ish roll top desk and it was not a suite.... More

I'm terribly sorry you didn't like your room. Looking at the records, your reservation was for a studio, not a suite, which explains two things: the room was not a suite by definition, and there are indeed only three of this type of room in the hotel, so it was the only one available when you checked in. THAT SAID,... More

Lets get this out of the way right up front. The BW Friday Harbor is a pretty decent hotel. I think most of the negative reviews are coming from people that don't understand the law of supply and demand. It's an island folks! The number of hotel rooms is very limited and everything costs them more so they are going... More

Thank you for your candor. We are always looking to improve and will take your notes into consideration. It is especially gratifying that you mention the cleanliness...yes, we are outdated! The former owners liked the 1980s! But everything is spotless and kept to super high standards. Hope to see you next summer! More

We spent 2 nights there. The location was very good, just a short walk from the heart of Friday Harbor and across the street from the church where we were able to attend daily Mass. The hotel prices in Friday Harbor seem to be pretty high generally, and this was the best deal we could find. The staff were very... More

This hotel feels like its in transition. On the one hand, it was clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. We had a bit of a mixup with our reservation (made through BW central reservations), and the FH staff cheerfully sorted it out. The suites are well-equipped (except for no A/C, but that's not an issue most days of... More

What a treat to have at the end of a two week tour. Bedroom, living room, full kitchen, large bathroom. The main problem here is that there is no dining facility here or laundry facility. Restaurants are within walking distance though. Hotel does provide a continental breakfast. More
