“Great customer service, clean friendly and priced right.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011

It was priced better than anything I could find in Bellingham, and I was pleasantly surprised with how nice everything was. I had the option to request extra pillows when placing my reservation online and they were there when I arrived placed neatly on the beds. The desk agents were very friendly and helpful. I've stayed in dives for the same price so this place exceeded my expectations. My excellent rating is based on the value.

“Convenient”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011

We stayed here while on a car trip in the Northwest, visiting friends. We were hoping that there was a decent motel to stay in near the Anacortes ferry, and this place showed up just in time.
It seems like a heavily-used motel, probably because it is close to the ferry and it is right off the interstate. In spite of that, the room was quite clean and it appears that the owners have been upgrading items like carpets, sinks, etc.
We only stayed one night, but it served our purposes well.

“Fit the bill perfectly”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

Made a last minute reservation here because I was participating in a 2 day cycling event in town and decided I'd rather not do the camping thing. The price was right, the room clean and sufficiently quiet. Older decor but all I wanted was a shower and a good night's rest; I enjoyed both. Mini fridge, micro and coffeemaker will appeal to many. Did not go for their free breakfast, since I wanted to get back to the event.

“Very good value for the price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

We stayed there on our way from San Juan Islands to Vancouver BC, and another time back from Vancouver and going to the Cascades for one day. So we occupied two different rooms, and both were big and clean. Staff is very friendly, and breakfast is good (I would have liked to have a wider variety of cereals as there's nothing but oatmeal - not my thing - but it's not a big deal). Location is convenient too, there are loads of restaurants in the neighbourhood. So as said above, this is a vey good value for the price.

“you will get a SMOKING room even if you book ahead non-smoking”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2011

The owners of this hotel appeared to have made a large effort to remodel and upgrade this hotel so that it does not reflect it's orginal age inside and out. The couple that were at the front desk on the morning of our checkout were very polite and professional.

Unfortunately, we were visiting family in the area with our twin infants, one who was born underweight and had health issues because of this. I booked this hotel because the reviews indicated it was clean. When we arrived a young girl was at the front desk apparently finishing up a personal call while we waiting. At the room I found a large outdoor ash can (similar to those you find in front of restaurants) bolted outside of our room. Our room did not have a non-smoking symbol. I went to the front and again had to wait for her to finish a personal phone call and told her that there was a mistake and that we received a smoking room. She said that there was no way that we could change because it would be a lot of work for her. I pointed out that we had arrived early on a summer evening (at 7 p.m.) and the parking lot was almost empty indicating that many guests have not arrived yet. The she told me that it is a hassle for her to switch people around and when a guest books only one night, you just get whatever is available regardless of what you book. So, I asked if I could borrow tools such as a screwdriver to remove the large ash can temporarily. She said no. So I asked if I could go to Walmart across the street to purchase a screwdriver to remove the ash can and she said that we would be charged for damaging the hotel's property. So I tied a poopy diaper to the top of the ash can. When my husband returned at 10 p.m. from a shopping trip to Walmart (no, he did not buy a screwdriver), we found several cigarette butts put out in the diaper! They were all of the same brand and some were not completely finished -so must be someone with money to waste.

I would also like to note that the carpet was very dirty. We wore socks in the room and the bottom of our socks were almost completely black. Yuck!

Ted Nager, Manager at Tulip Inn Mt. Vernon, responded to this review

Dear 36sunflowers:

We take our guest comments very seriously, and we are very sorry your stay did not meet certain standards. Recently we transformed 100% of the hotel to Non Smoking Rooms. Some of our guests are smokers, and inorder to accomodate them we installed ashtrays outside, near the rooms to ensure the rooms remain smoke free. On occassion we do have guests who do not comply with the smoking ban and decide to smoke in the room. This makes it very difficult for our staff members to police and very uncomfortable for our non smoking guests. Our staff members work exceptionally hard to ensure your stay is enjoyable and comfortable. Again we are very sorry for the hardship you endured and we would welcome any further details of your stay so that we may improve on all of the shortcomings. Please call us directly to discuss.

Sincerely,

Doug Whitcher
Manager
