Hotel was not at all what we expected. Once we arrived we were charged extra money.The manager was quite rude too.We booked a standard room with two queen beds,but instead they looked like doubles. The room was filthy. The bathroom was very small. In the four days that we stayed our room was never cleaned and we never had fresh bedding or towels put in the room.We had to ask for fresh towels one day, and a trashbag on another to empty our own garbage.As far as the extended continnental breakfast,the only good thing is the juice,sausage and waffles.The location was great for what we had planned,but the freeway was so close that it was extremely noisy inside the room.We will never stay here again !!
Great Place to Start a NW Vacation

Three couples stayed at the FCI in mid-July. The rooms were great! Very comfortable beds and the WiFi was excellent. The hot breakfast is outstanding; it far exceeds that of many large chains. They do very well for a smaller property. They have items for those who prefer something more hearty and for those who prefer something lighter (and healthier!). Close to the ferries and Deception Pass Bridge. You will need a vehicle to get to the ferries, as it is about 7 miles from the FCI. Stephanie at the front desk was very helpful in making the reservation and providing tips on places to dine and sites to see. My wife and I stayed here a couple of other times several years ago--they have gotten BETTER with age!
Perfect, quiet area but close to town

We were in Seattle for the soap box derby but wanted to stay away from the city -- this hotel was perfect, only about an hour from Seattle but excellent for relaxing and winding down. The location near the ferries is perfect but not noisy, and the rooms were beautifully decorated and cozy with comfortable beds. Everything was spotlessly clean and the staff was helpful and friendly -- this place definitely made our little vacation extra special! We will be back!
