Motellit – Shaw Island

”It’s an aging facility, but it seemed clean and had all we needed. Coffee, shampoo, etc. At least one electrical outlet didn’t seem to work and there was a floor lamp that I couldn’t find a switch for so I couldn’t use it. It’s pretty close to an area with several restaurants which was handy and walkable.”

”The hosts gave us the room and code for a remote check in when our train kept getting later and later. The decor is simple and very cute. It was hard to get an Uber late at night from the train station in Mt Vernon. Best bet is to try both Uber and Lift but we did wish we’d just rented a car as we would have explored the area more.”

”Spacious 2 bedroom with a full fridge, stovetop, microwave and sink. Remember to bring your own cooking ware and dishes if you plan to cook! Bathroom was really nicely updated. Room was overall clean (couple of dusty corners). No AC if that’s something you need (but Anacortes is a very mild climate so we enjoyed having the windows open). Great location especially to get to the ferry to the San Juan’s.”
