Eureka Inn, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

Eureka Inn, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good
"Very nice old hotel. My pillow had a urine smell which was unpleasant, and the bed was hard as a rock, which was great for me but not so much for my wife. Lots of charm, and notable people have stayed there which was cool. Parking is behind a gate which made me feel safe."

"The room was clean and comfortable. Perfect for a cheap stay to move our daughter into college. The check in with a remote employee was weird and difficult to communicate with. The staff at the counter was very helpful and nice. There are some characters walking around the property."
