We had a last-minute hospital emergency ending with a funeral, we spent 4 nights, 2 in another different hotel around the same area, our last two nights in Bellingham we chose Comfort Inn and we didn't regret the change, definitely helped to see the presence of a security male or police officer when we checked in.
The room was very clean, the only reason I give it a 4 star is because of the TV control remote, I had to call the front desk to be able to watch something on TV.
We definitely going back and choosing Comfort Inn for our stay in Bellingham.
