This hotel was great! Staff were amazingly friendly and help! The only issue was the A/c unit in our room did not get cold and was mostly just a fan

The staff is great, but the room was not a good fit for me. The bed is about 12 inches off the floor, the lights have no shades on them and are blindingly bright. The window didnt shut completely, the bathtub drain was clogged, and there was nothing to sit on other than the bed. The location is excellent, the vibe is good, the staff is excellent, and the orice was right, but ill never book here again.

This is a nice historic property in a great location. It has a very friendly and helpful staff and a nice bar. What drags my rating down is mainly the bed. It was a mattress on a platform with no box spring. As a result, it is low and incredibly hard for us older folks to get in and out of. The furniture in the room looked old and the couch was just dirty looking. The room was huge (two room suite), but no storage. The shower was good, but no grab bar. I would not stay here again unless I was assured they had replaced the bed with a more conventional option.

Hotel Leo is located in the center of downtown, nice touristic area. But the area becomes unsafe, getting worse every year. I see hotel is serious about it and there’s safe inside

an unexpected gem
This hotel is an unexpected gem in the heart of Bellingham. It’s nondescript from the outside - we would have walked right past it. It’s within walking distance to dozens of restaurants and shops, and the included parking means we never had to use our car. The hotel itself is very old with a lot of history, but has been extensively renovated and modernized. Staff are very friendly, easygoing and helpful. If you’re staying in Bellingham, this is the place to stay.

Nice to have the option of a suite with a kitchen and separate bedroom. However, there was no elevator to the first floor of suites so we had to carry everything up stairs. Not a big deal, but not ideal.
