Questions about Pacific Blue Inn

What time is check-in and check-out at Pacific Blue Inn?

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Pacific Blue Inn allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Pacific Blue Inn?

Yes — parking is available on site at a charge the property sets. We check the rate and whether a space can be reserved against your dates.

Does Pacific Blue Inn have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Pacific Blue Inn have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Pacific Blue Inn?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
