Ramada Bayside Inn and Suites

Hotel sencillo y limpio. La ubicación es buena: se puede ir caminando al centro en 5-10 minutos. Las habitaciones estaban limpias y había una televisión grande. La piscina parecía estar bien. Un lugar básico pero con una buena relación calidad-precio. El personal es muy amable y la gerencia parecía estar muy atenta a las necesidades de la propiedad.

Muy bien………………..volveremos…………..! …………..Genial…………………………………………………………Bueno

總體來説還是很不錯的了。

This was budget choice, driving to the Pacific Northwest from SF. The price value ratio was above average. It was easy to find, but the location had few nearby amenities, making it a motel. An OK stay, but to my grateful surprise, the bed / mattress was as good as one in a much more expensive hotel. My take, a good, comfortable bed is one of the most important qualifiers, when travelling. The motel was recently purchased by Ramada and suspect they will be making improvements. The bathroom was functional, but really old. Lampshades were so old, they were starting to disintegrate (which is sort of amazing). The free breakfast, oddly set up in a "you wouldn't guess it's here" side room, was unimaginative and wholly lacking any presentation (food that's good has to look good to be appetising). Today, for an all-in $100 a night, the Eureka Ramada goes over the 50% mark and gets a recommendation.

A most excellent establishment. They do it right. Clean quiet and pragmatically appointed. Classy furniture of slightly retro, old-fashioned character that evoke familiarity and ease. Definitely my go-to place to reintegrate and recharge

I recently (February 7-9, 2025) stayed 2 nights at the Bayside Inn & Suites in Eureka, CA. Check in was fine – the front desk clerk was nice. We talked about which room I would have (with my son and his family next door). I gave him my credit card and he asked me to sign the pad, which I did. He did not ask if I wanted a copy and I didn’t think to ask for one. I was looking through the front window at the parking lot and thought there’s no way I would go out there at night. Quite a few “sketchy” people were in the parking lot. Thankfully my son was there to escort me to the car. I let a couple things go in my original review: a small hole in the shower, sketchy place to be at night and my socks were brown on the bottoms after walking around the hotel room. When you check in, they charge your credit card an extra $100. I guess it’s in case you trash the room. I called Monday morning to check to see when they would put the money back in my account. The person I talked to said it takes a couple days. I called again on Wednesday, February 12th after I checked my bank account and saw they only put back $75. I spoke to Nesele who sounded very pleased they put back the $75. I asked why only $75 and not the $100. She told me that it’s because I USED THE TOWELS. I asked if I called a hotel and did she realize people take showers and use towels. She said it’s policy. Then she said it’s because I stained a washcloth and hand towel. I used it to take my makeup off. I do it all the time at home. Throw it in the washer and it’s good; no stain. And, I’m pretty sure hotels use bleach. Again, she said it’s policy to charge for stained items. I asked to speak to the Manager; she refused, saying I could send an e-mail. I asked for the Manager’s name and direct number and again she refused. I sent an e-mail to the “Manager” and received a reply. He/she never signed their name, just signed the e-mail “Manager”. I was told the “$25.00 charge is legitimate as it is based on the agreement made during your check-in regarding damages to the room and property”. I told the Manager that I never received a print out of the check in information and the picture they sent me was taken prior to washing it as it was taken on the counter in the bathroom area of the room I was in. I asked what the housekeeping protocol is as far as washing goes. Long story short, I received no response. My last e-mail to the Manager was February 18th. I don’t know who sent the e-mail as there is no name, just signed “Manager”. In looking at other reviews, this is an ongoing issue – charging for supposedly “stained” towels. The reviews also state that people don’t feel comfortable going to the parking lot in the evening/night. If I thought it would make a difference, I would send them an invoice for my dirty socks. They say they’re “the best hotel in Eureka”, which is laughable. The free breakfast is a wrapped muffin, protein bar, fairly non existent. Read the revi
