Super 8 Port Angeles

This place is good if you’re on a budget. Nothing fancy here. Has free breakfast and is short distance drive if you plan to go to Victoria Canada there is the ferry in downtown Port Angeles.

The Super 8 is very inexpensive. It’s a Super 8. Reading the reviews I had to laugh. I don’t know what people expected. I will say looking at the website, the pictures will Catfish you. The place isn’t that close to the Port; however, I don’t think you can stay any closer. Also the rooms are small. However, the hotel is clean. There is free breakfast, and the staff is super nice and accommodating. Overall, this is a nice cheap hotel. Don’t expect a 5 star hotel when you book a $ 60.00 a night super 8. There is a more expensive hotel behind this one, and I don’t think paying the extra money is worth it. Same location and pretty much the same accommodations. It’s a good place to spend 1 night.

I have absolutely no problem with this Motel. The room was very clean and had a fridge, microwave and t.v. Breakfast was very good with many things to choose from. The staff was super friendly. I guess some people will always find something to gripe about. For the price it is an absolute winner.

The front desk was friendly and welcoming. I had a visa debit card and they would not accept it as credit so they charged my room fee as well as a $ 150 deposit pending in my account. They told me they could not run my card as debit. They charged a premium rate for the room on a Tuesday night. I thought it was too expensive for what the room was. Typical outdated, old Super 8.

Typical Super 8. No better. No worse. Room is small and dark and dated. Stained rug. Wear and tear apparent everywhere. Old tube TV — who has these anymore??? Breakfast was typical free continental fare but at least the hot stuff was hot and the cold stuff was cold. Front desk staff was great — friendly and helpful. Wish I hadn’t noticed a tiny Chihuahua peeing on the rug in the hallway as we were leaving the breakfast room.

Good for the price. It is what it is-​a nicely run Super 8 budget hotel. Clean rooms, good AC/​heat. Outdated tube tv with no sleep timer (oh well). Breakfast in the morning and good free wifi. Perfect for a quick stop. It is a little outside of the main portion of downtown Port Angeles.

First lets knock out that this is not a Ritz Carlton. It is a Super 8 and as such should be thought of as any 2 – 3 star motel, not hotel.
The location grades uphill and the 1^st floor is underground. By the time you drive to the back of the property you are then viewing the 2^nd floor. There is no elevator, but it is two short flights of steps. We were on the very end room 324.
Our room had a mini refrigerator, small microwave and a 1 cup coffee maker. There were 4 paper cups wrapped in protective sealed plastic. There was a tube tv set and I wouldn’t expect a flat screen at a 2 star. Why? Because as in real life flat screens go out and they are easily bumped and tipped over. The old style tv last forever, period. There was a small ice bucket with a plastic bag. The ice is on the 1^st floor if I recall. The room did have a small safe as well. There was a small entertainment center where the tv sits and on the other side of it the wardrobe side with 6 hangars.
It had a through the wall ac/​heat unit. The carpet was standard motel carpet. The walls were standard motel walls. The bed was medium firmness. I sleep on feather pillows and the pillows here were standard size pillows you pick up at any store for $ 7.99. I had a hard time sleeping on them. I would recommend if you are used to sleeping on a non firm pillow bring your own.
The room had two lamps with two built in outlets on each. It also had a very small two person dinette table with two chairs. It had one luggage chair to sit your suitcase on for removing your clothes easier. The room had a small basic desk, and one night stand.
Continental style breakfast. You can your own fresh waffles, coffee, tea, milk, oj, cereals, apple juice, hard boiled eggs.
Bathroom was basic and clean. It did have a hair dryer.
Worked just fine for our 1 night stay Sept 2015 at $ 98.25.

Very good for an Economy hotel. Have stayed there many times before. Our room was updated, wood floors, new beds, new pillows, bedding. Slept great. Pet friendly. Typical free-​breakfast fare. Owner/​manager very responsible. Ice machine broke, he had a repairman there on Sunday and had ice available for residents.

I would not stay here even if it was free! Our family was traveling on the 4^th and was thinking it would be fun to stay here and explore the town. We arrived and were instantly disappointed the pics are not true to what the place looks like. There is no buffet area and the building is dingy and depressing once inside we were grossed out. The carpets walls and the whole place is outdated by about 30 years. We found no elevator and had to also awkardly park around the back and carry everything up stairs and with a baby. Once in the room i was gasping the bedding had big stains on it, painting were nailed down & the walls were stained. The tv was not even a flat screen & THE WORST part… After we were grossed out we called for a refund. The manager was very rude and the front desk was incompetent. The manager was very rude and told us that 200 dollars was a fair price this is WAY overpriced. I THEN found a pubic hair as i was going to take a bath and try to stay to make the best of it. I called again demanding a refund and the manager came to the door. He was very rude again and unapologetic and simple stated this was their miss. YES the whole place is a miss… We called expedia to get a refund and left as soon as we could…

I seriously don’t know what people are talking about. I don’t the front desk person I wanted to pay with cash when I was checking out. He told me I still needed to put a car down for incidentals, which I totally understand. When I got home not only did I pay for my room in cash but they also pulled the money out of my credit card to pay for the room as well. I called to have them help me sort this out and the guy said I didn’t have enough knowledge to understand this situation!!! So unprofessional. I ended up calling my a, axing bank and they helped me file a fraud claim and I got my money back. Total hassle and very stressful. Super irritating front desk person. If I could give it zero stars I would. I WILL NEVER BE BACK! Ever!

Great spot, they’ve refurbished the place and it’s clean and fresh. Need a comfortable quiet affordable spot to rest? You’ve found it.

Typical super 8 place — I love breakfast waffles… I will stay at this hotel again. 08÷19÷14

I stayed here a week ago. First hotel ever, that I didn’t have an iron, lotion or conditioner. The bed was horrible hard and the next morning, the shower faucet wouldn’t turn on. Disgusted, I left. No apology, or call. Nothing. My total bill came to $ 161. for a queen size bed. This place is old. No pool and completely over priced! Don’t stay here.

This was the most disgustingly smelling hotel I’ve even been to!!!
Our room was at −1÷0 floor (partially under ground.) The smell was so awful that I couldn’t breath (mold)
I’m not sure if they changed the linen, it was so creased.
The price was ridiculous! Super 8 is one big joke for me!

Nothing fancy… just a basic hotel. We normally try to stay away from Super 8s, but we really didn’t have a choice. David, the owner and GM, checked us in. Very friendly. Overall, the room was nice. The only thing that have to to knock it down for was a small smell in the room. Couldn’t tell what it was, but it was there. The room had a safe, fridge and microwave. Breakfast was ok. I was looking forward to the cinnamon roles mentioned everywhere and we never saw them. The waffle machine didn’t work well, but that was because they didn’t have cooking spray there. Wifi worked pretty well.
I had to rate them a 3 because I can’t quite get to a 4. I wouldn’t be opposed to staying here again.
I don’t understand all the bad reviews. If it really was that bad, they have improved a lot. In fact, they did have an award for most improved in the lobby. They still have work to do, but it’s nothing like they have mentioned in other reviews.

Not bad for the price. But the Bed Bugs before May 2013 was an issue. Being told «we had the floor sprayed» is not acceptable. The whole building needs to be done or they’ll return! :(Yuck

I’m surprised to find I haven’t written a review yet for this location; we live just a couple hours away but when we visit friends who live in Port Angeles, we like to come for the weekend so we don’t have to worry about time or the trip back home.
While pleased with our previous visits, this is about Andrew, the asst mgr. I had taken advantage of an offer for a room discount that I got via email for next weekend and made the reservation online. This morning the charge went through on my card even though we’re not staying until next weekend. I called and got Andrew and found out that in the small print, it states this is a pre-​paid reservation. My bad for not reading the small print; I hadn’t anticipated that. Long story short (I know; too late), I ended up hanging up on poor Andrew and called my bank. Ended up with a very nice rep there who understood I was blindly upset and obviously unreasonable (why do we get like that? I’ve been a cust serv supervisor; I really disliked customers like me as I was this morning lolol). She got Andrew on the phone and between the two of them, set everything to rights (hopefully). But even if it doesn’t go as they hope it will, I just wanted to mention that Andrew stayed cool and calm and very pleasant, even when I wasn’t. And he even offered to make the reservation again (without the offer, of course) so that we still could come out next weekend.
Kudos, Andrew — thank you and again, I’m sorry.

Typical old fashioned hotel. Nothing fancy what so ever, but not a bad price for the location.
We showed up with no reservation on a Monday night, and were told they only had rooms with 2 doubles left. No biggie. The room was on the 3^rd floor, and clean. No elevator, but the stairs are just fine. Again, clean room… plenty big enough. The bathroom was also clean and a normal size for a hotel bathroom. TV was a small old tv, but worked alright and they had plenty of channels available. There was also free wifi.
Downsides:
1: The only things available in the bathroom were horrible hotel shampoo, and the soap. No conditioner or lotion. I could live without the lotion obviously, but no conditioner? Thats a standard thing that any woman staying in a hotel needs. And sure, I could have brought some, but Ive never stayed in a hotel that didnt have at least a small thing of crummy conditioner to help a little after the crummy shampoo.
2: There was supposed to be 24 hour coffee and hot water in the «breakfast room». I went down at 6pm to get a cup of coffee, and both things of regular coffee, and the decaf were empty. I didnt bother telling the front desk, but figure if you promise it, it should be there. They should have a schedule that they double check the amounts and brew when necessary.
3: When I went down for breakfast in the morning, I couldnt help but notice the multiple signs saying that food and drink must be kept in the breakfast room. No food or drink was allowed to be taken to the rooms. Thats ridiculous. They had like 4 tables that were full of people and their kids. And even if there wasnt, I would have taken the food back to my room to enjoy in peace and watch some tv before starting my day. The breakfast room was tiny and really run down looking. Selection was okay for a free breakfast. Yogurt, fruit cups, cereal, oatmeal, cinnamon rolls, breads for toast, make your own waffle, coffee, hot (warm) water and juice… I made my selections, and headed to my room to eat.
In all, Id stay again if in town and on a budget… Id just bring my own conditioner, and make sure I am able to smuggle breakfast back to my room.

My daughter and I stayed here last week after a day in Forks (yes, we did the Twilight pilgrimage and we aren’t ashamed. It was FUN.)
Andrew at the front desk (I hope that was his name) was the sweetest guy, totally helpful and friendly. He scampered around trying to find a Twilight brochure for us because he saw our «Forks» sweatshirts. What a sweetheart! Turns out they didn’t have any more. The Twi-​phenomenon is pretty much winding down.
This place was older and in no way fancy. Who cares. It was clean and the price was much better than other lodging in Port Angeles. After a day in Forks we were there just to get a night’s sleep before heading back to Seattle. We could hear the neighboring room’s TV a little at 10:00 p.m. but that was quickly solved by turning on the a/​c unit’s fan in our room to add some white noise. Problem solved.
They even serve breakfast which was a surprise. Nothing fancy but it’s nice to grab some coffee or juice and a muffin. They also had a waffle maker but we didn’t try those.

–5 STARS
I want to give the manager at this location a NEGATIVE 5 stars if I can. The reason is that the manager was an a**hole and didn’t even have any manners. I made the complain with him in the morning that we didn’t get the roll way beds that we requested in our 3 room reservations. He didn’t even apologize for their problem but instead told us «you were lucky that front desk didn’t kick you out last night for ONE extra kid in the room»… What the f**ck??? What kind of customer service is that? Where on earth can the manager say something like this to their customer with children?
I was about the slap the guy in the head but my brother stopped me for not dealing with the jerk and ruin our trip. I told him I’ll report to Motel 8 corporate and he didn’t even care.
Our stay was on August 2008. I wish I knew about Unilocal earlier to report this incident to warn other Unilocalers from getting into their trap. This is not a family friendly place as your kid cannot stay in the same room. DON’T STAY HERE!!!
