Orcas Island, Washington hotel rooms at the Independent

"We have stayed here a few times and it’s always great. The only problem was the slots were too tight. Shout out to Mercedes and Toby in the Red River Cafe. Awesome service and lots of fun to chat with. "

"The staff were very friendly and they were very festive for the holidays. "

"Lovely spot in downtown Bellingham. Super comfy bed and lovely staff. Great alternative to chain hotels in north Bellingham. "

"This hotel is a hidden gem! It is nothing fancy, but it was clean, and the staff was very friendly. We checked out before breakfast, and they offered coffee, water, and sweet rolls for our morning trip!"

"Nice property. Cabin is great. The gal at check in was super nice. Took my dog out at midnight & shut the door w/out my key…the man who answered the red phone at the lobby was pleasant even at midnight. "

"The night staff and the morning staff are extremely friendly, and helpful. The beds were comfortable, and it was nice to have a full bath in the bathroom. We will definitely stay again. Can’t beat it for the price."

"Nice and quiet waterfront location "

"Decent spot with fridge, microwave, HBO cable and a good bathroom. Functioning AC and cleanly. My favorite spot to stay at just for the premium cable and price. "
