Having stayed at the two hotels that are top-rated on Trip Advisor, my advice is AVOID STAYING in CRESCENT CITY. It is not a bad place in itself (some decent food, amazing lighthouse), but all of the hotels seem sub-standard. If you are able, look to other cities to stay in overnight. That being said, this hotel was okay but... More

I've stayed in several places when passing through Crescent City, and have finally found a decent one where I feel secure. Interior corridors, spacious rooms, great lighting, great tub & shower head, micro/fridge/ excellent wifi, coffee/tea always in lobby. Independently owned; how refreshing! Happy with room rate, at least during off season. I will return. More

This was our third stay at this motel. A man named Mike at the front desk is a wonderful man, very friendly and helpful. The room was large and clean. Lots of parking also room for RVs. Beach/harbor across street for easy walking. We have tried other motels on past stays in Cresent City but have finally settled for this... More

Chose the Lighthouse Inn based on the reviews in Trip Advisor. Didn't quite live up to the hype. Pros: Attactive lobby area, large clean rooms with a sofa and good lighting, sinks separate from the bath / tub, quiet rooms, good parking, large elevator. Cons: Right off Highway 101, some road noise, not very good views from the window, not... More

I am glad we picked this hotel based on the reviews, because the town was reater dreary and depressing when we were there. The Hotel looks right out to the arbor, but the rooms are vry comfortable and quiet being on the main road through town. Thelobby was very nicely decorated. More

Great gem of a hotel at a terrific price! Very large, clean room with all the amenities only a block from the harbor. Look to your left as you enter the lobby for an interesting piece of art that anyone in their 50's will get a kick out of. Excellent staff. Morning breakfast was a good size for a continental. More

My husband & I stayed here on our way back from Washington, this was our second time staying at this hotel. Rooms are LARGE & clean, nothing fancy, but clean & that is a MUST! Only noise came from the foghorn in the harbor, but soon tuned it out or it stopped! While here my husband went fishing on the... More

*service* Called ahead and informed them I would be arriving later in the evening. They asked how many guests we had and I informed him two adults and two small kids. He said rooms would be available. When we arrived the gentleman at the desk was very friendly and I mentioned I had called about four hours earlier he remembered... More

Not much to choose from in Crescent City. The rooms are large, rather plainly finished, but adequate. Tv and Internet both work well. People at the desk were chelpful, but occasionally gone. Breakfast is very carb heavy.. Not much else to choose. More

This was the jump off for our bike ride to San Francisco. For the number one rated hotel in Crescent City,,,, I would hate to see number 10! Lots of kitsch, which is ok. Staff was "ok" but just that. Considering we were taking up 10 rooms, it appeared that they just wanted to get us in and be done... More
