About
About Bay City Motor Inn Bellingham
A practical Bellingham stay with breakfast, Wi-Fi, and the rare motel detail that still makes sense: a pool table.
Bay City Motor Inn Bellingham is a straightforward hotel in Bellingham, Washington, built around useful amenities rather than decorative fuss. Rooms include cable TV with HBO, a hair dryer, and seating area, while some room types add a microwave and refrigerator for easier snacks, leftovers, or longer stays. Free Wi-Fi keeps route planning and light work simple, and continental breakfast gives the morning a quick start before campus visits, road trips, or airport runs. The hotel also offers a gym with exercise equipment and a pool table, which gives guests something to do indoors when Bellingham weather performs its usual grey routine. The location works well for travelers visiting Western Washington University, Civic Field Park, downtown Bellingham, or nearby local routes.
