I just phoned Lion's Inn to check on the rates, and as the conversation went with the receptionist he was asking what I was needing in the way of accomodation; it sounded like he was setting up a reservation, and I interrupted him to say I was looking for rates. He began to speak to me like an insolent child, careful to use the word ...

DO NOT STAY HERE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/14/09
We are from out of town and we booked 3 nights at the motel. When we got there it was not at all what the pictures showed. There was dried food on the microwave ( I didn't look inside!!) and around the sink. The curtains were about 6 light panels that did not meet and left gaps between each panel. Nick was not friendly at all. We stayed a ...
LLiked everything! Disliked nothing!! My girlfiend and I reserved a room at the Lion, and honestly did not expect much. To our surprise..we were delighted! "Nick" was extremely personable and took measures to make sure we were well taken care of! The room was SO quaint and clean...I couldn't have asked for more...ESPECIALLY FOR ...

It's great!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/22/09
It's a really good place to stay. First, if you don't have a car, it's so easy to take a bus because the bus stop is just outside of the motel. Plus that bus line is the busiest one in Bellingham. You can go anywhere easily. Second, the service is awsome. The manager is super nice. He helped us a lot when we stayed there. He always ...

Bed and Breakfast Quality
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/17/09
What can I say... totally charming! I came here absolutely road weary with my cat and her kitten and my family and the managers treated us with graciousness and warmth! They don't just tolerate pets, they are animal lovers! The room is spotless. The decorations are what I would be happy to find in a good bed and breakfast. The neighborhood ...
From the moment the owner/manager greeted us (we were fresh off of a flight at bedtime), it was clear to me that he was a very warm person, and we were indeed extremely well taken care of and felt very at home. He attended to everything meticulously, not allowing me to haul my own suitcase, etc. Upon checkout, when it was time for us to call a cab, ...
This was a wonderful experience for me. I stayed four nights; the room was perfect for one person (although they do have larger rooms), recently remodeled and very clean. The manager was very helpful and even loaned me his hotpot (plus he gave me a supply of teabags, sugar, lemon, a mug and spoon!) so I could have hot tea every morning. The ...

I have stayed here 12 times
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/01/09
The Lions Inn Motel is a clean, quiet, inexpensive, well-managed motel. I come to Bellingham 3 times a year for soccer tournaments. For the last 4 years I have stayed here each time - a total of 12 times. I can strongly recommend the Lions Inn Motel. Over the last few years, they have redecorated the rooms and, in addition to being clean, quiet, and inexpensive, the rooms are quite modern.
The manager was very rude and harrassed us. He threw us and our 3 childern out over a rate dispute of $15. We wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to have a relaxing quiet vacation.Would be a good half-way house for prisoners.!!
