Four Points by Sheraton Bellingham Hotel & Conference Center

I loved the location of this hotel. We were not only close to my daughter but close to Western Washington for her graduation and there was a grocery store with a Starbucks right next door. Plenty of other stores around too. Our room was quiet.

The room we were in definitely needs more lighting. Also, I felt like the carpet in that room needed a cleaning. It wasn't horrible it just didn't seem clean however, that really could have a lot to do with the poor lighting. Things look cleaner or more dirty when there's good lighting, depending.

Restaurant service was good and staff were friendly and even remembered our names from day-to-day. Front desk management was knowledgeable, friendly and considerate. When they didn't have an answer, they went after getting one. The pool facility was good and the jacuzzi was a bonus. All-in-all, I would strongly consider going there again.

Room service was missed one day. As we were there for a week, this service is provided every-other day. I get it: these things happen... Perhaps most annoying is this piece: Upon checking in, the front desk advised that I be signed up for the Marriot Bonvoy Frequent Stay points service. I said "OK" and I now regret doing so. Both my wife's phone and my phone have been barraged by phone calls for incentive programs and the like. MOST ANNOYING! I'm going to cancel out of it. Marriot has fine hotels, but I don't need them to be in-my-face about it.

The location and cleanliness were top notch. The breakfast is delicious and the kitchen staff are very nice. The dog friendly rooms, multiple exits and toileting areas are a nice touch.

I feel like the cost isn’t worth the quality, they seem to cheapen out on everything. The sheets, bed, multiple shower liner cracked repairs (just replace it) and thin towels just don’t warrant the cost in my opinion.
