"Mel was kind with lots of good information beyond just Friday Harbor or San Juan Island."

8.0

Well appointed rooms with property and games to enjoy. Could BBQ, enjoy the weather on a swing or patio, or play a multitude of games. Rooms were beautifully done with no need of anything.

Just be aware you'll hear neighbors walking or talking. Usually quiet by 1100 and people up by 700.

"I highly recommend this relaxing getaway destination and lifestyle environment."

10.0

Inn is located at Friday Harbor on San Juan Island, Washington. Took Ferry ride from AnaCortes. Lots of nature to see on land and at sea, recommend driving around the island which is lust and beautiful. We saw deer, fox, and cattle ranches. Took a local 3 hour Whale watching tour out of Friday Harbor highly recommend. Very safe and comfortable. We saw a pod whales that we enjoyed watching. Buy tickets at Red Bldg to right Ferry Exit.

That I couldn't stay longer...

"Sehr angenehm"

8.0

Das Zimmer war klein, aber gemütlich. Am besten hat uns die Kaffeeecke gefallen. Zusätzlich gab es einen Schreibtisch sowie einen Stuhl dazu. Das Badezimmer war geräumig, aber ohne Fenster an der Rezeption war das Personal sehr nett und hilfsbereit und auskunftsbereit. Die Unterkunft war leicht zu finden außerhalb, ruhig, aber noch nicht soweit außerhalb von Friday habe.

Recht hellhörig.
