The value for price is one of the best in the area. As far as I know, the only other place with any sort of kitchen facilities is far more expensive. While small, the kitchen is more than is usually provided in most hotel rooms in this price range. The location is two blocks from the main commercial street in Anacortes, and there are a number of places to eat within an easy walking distance. The nearest local bus stop is two blocks away, with an airporter bus stop about 10 blocks south. Everything was clean and relatively comfortable.

It is important for travelers from outside the northwest to understand that many hotels in this region do not have air conditioning. This includes this facility. On a hot August day, this may be uncomfortable for some that aren't used to this. I found it cooled down well at night, but some may not find this suitable for their stay, if they come during the hot season.

The place was incredibly clean, and the linens were clean and new. The towels were a lot thicker than the ones you normally get in a budget motel. The hot water in the shower came on instantly. And the front desk staff was very kind.

Unfortunately, the parking lot is too small for the number of rooms available. I had to park in the back. I was a little apprehensive at first, but I was told that they had security cameras on the alley area, and they could see them from their rooms. The area was well lit. There was a walkway between the two wings that gave me a quick path to the front of the motel from my car. Also, the desk staff said that all the locals knew that they had security cameras, so that gave them extra confidence in the safety of the area.

I actually, I had already filled out a review shortly after returning home. But I don’t mind leaving another one. Everything was excellent from the minute I arrived. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, they were very quick at having our room ready. The room itself was wonderful. It had two separate beds With fans running, as it was hot that day. I would definitely go there again. And I would recommend this to anyone that’s traveling up in that area. Great job!

The room was divided nicely with a kitchenette in between. Our son got his own room and so did we.

There could have been kitchen utilities and supplies for the kitchenette We were out of state travelers who used air travel to get to Washington and didn't have the usual kitchenette travel supplies. No biggie, we are very adaptable and had nice meals there anyway. There was a also decent refrigerator and microwave plus a decent coffee maker and coffee packs.

the price was the best reason to like this motel. The rooms could use some updating but the room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Very quiet. Couldn't hear the neighbors above or on either side at all. 2 blocks to the main part of downtown Anacortes. 3 blocks to a little beach park. The kitchenette was a nice bonus.

The rooms do need updating. There was no closet in our room but several small tables.

I made my reservation for the wrong day. The person at the desk canceled the wrong reservation at no charge and then rented me a nice room at the same rate. The room had 2 queens that were separated by the bathroom. That didn’t matter to me as a single traveler but if I actually had needed both beds that would have been a good feature that most 2-queen rooms do not have. BTW, the location is great. On a quiet street a block from old town Anacortes.

This is a basic hotel but in a very good location. I like the room layout -- with the 2 beds separated by the bathroom and kitchen area. Staff are very nice and helpful.

Access to wifi was a constant struggle. Although they seem to have multiple wifi networks each connection lasts only a few minutes -- with just 1 or 2 bar connection speeds. If you need connectivity it's best to use your cellular plan.

WOW! From the get-go, the woman at the front desk from this family owned motel was very accommodating and helpful in answering all of my questions. I had a heavy cooler I needed to carry into the room and she happily accommodated my request to be on the main level. THEN when I got to the room, they had just finished cleaning it and it was spotless. For the price, I was blown away. A Queen bed in one room, a king in the other and a little kitchen area with stove (not sure it worked), sink and seating area. All of the other hotels in Anacortes were priced quite a bit more than the San Juan Motel, so I was surprised when I saw the extremely reasonable price. When I asked her about the price, she stated she wants to offer affordable lodging for tourists - awesome! The bonus was they had laundry facilities and the washer and dryer worked great. VERY happy with this property and if I return to Anacortes, I'll book it again!

Not a darn thing.

Great bang for your buck, compared to some local air bnb properties this place beats all of those if you’re planning on spending most of your time out and about. The room was clean, had a place to cook, do dishes, store any groceries (Fridge& freezer), had two fans to keep cool, a tv, lots of outlets, and two beds. The location was also great, close to everything in just a short walk.

Honestly I didn’t dislike anything, totally met my expectations. If I wanted to nit pick it would be nice to have streaming services on the tv but cable works just fine for any vacation.

It was everything I needed. Not fancy, but everything was clean and working. The wifi worked with no issues. Good refrigerator and microwave. Even a small sink to make it almost like a kitchenette.

I can't think of anything I didn't like. If I had come here in the middle of summer the lack of air conditioner may be a factor, though being up here on the island it's usually not as hot as other areas. A big fan is provided, which I did use anyway because I love to circulate the air. My stay was quite comfortable.
