Studio 6 Eureka, CA – Old Town — Hotel in Eureka

The City of Eureka received an assessment grant totaling $300,000. The first grant is a community-wide grant set aside to assess properties potentially impacted by hazardous substances and petroleum. This grant will be used to inventory brownfield sites and conduct a limited number of environmental site assessments to determine if sites are contaminated. All work will be performed within the Balloon Track and Waterfront area in Eureka.

3.Why redevelop these sites?

Brownfield sites are often a blight on neighborhoods and can potentially impact the environment. Most brownfields produce little tax revenue and reduce local employment opportunities. Cleaning up and reinvesting in brownfield sites increases the local tax base, facilitates job growth, utilizes existing infrastructure, and improves and protects the environment. No permitting or ground disturbance occurs with Phase Is. Phase IIs require permitting and subsurface sampling/ground disturbance, but Phase IIs are not required in order to participate in the project.

9.How long does it take to complete Phase Is and IIs?10.What are the regulatory risks associated with taking part in the City of Eureka Brownfields project?

If a Phase I recommends a Phase II and a Phase II is completed and contamination is found above regulatory action levels, then a State or Local agency may require further delineation of the impact. This could result in opening a regulatory case file and the current landowner would be named as a Responsible Party, along with any previous owners who caused or contributed to the contamination.

11.If a regulatory case file is opened as a result of the findings of a Phase II investigation, are there any funding sources available to cover costs?

Numerous grants and loans are available through State programs to address environmental impacts.  These grants, however, utilize a competitive selection process and funding is not guaranteed.

12.Will participating landowners increase their liability by participating?

You should consult with your legal counsel to evaluate your particular liability situation.  Participation in the project may increase your liability.  Commercial/industrial properties...

Overall value: 5/5 I slept like a baby on a firm but comfortable mattress in my 2 bedroom spacious and affordable king suite. The room was on the ground floor but in the middle by the employee storage entrance, but no one used it much and room was well insulated so I don’t remember hearing anything. The insulation and AC/heater/fan kept the room cool and quiet. The bathroom was spotless and the staff amazing. The location was good, but not perfect.

The staff: 5/5 friendly, helpful, good listeners, and knowledge about the local area.

The room: 4.5/5 It has lots of space, lots of storage, and countertops, but needs a $40 small collapsible luggage rack for bags, to protect the bedding and countertops from dirty airport luggage, to make it easy access your stuff, and some even have shoe/storage racks underneath to save space. Lastly, there was a desk and 1 chair. For a suite, please give me: 1 office chair. 1 small 2 seat couch (if it can fits) and either 2 small chairs for guests or kids or 2 small bean bags you can wash. And consider the less expensive units with enough space as well. Those small upgrades would be worth $10-15 extra per night. However, I got a suite for an excellent price and had room enough for me, my friend, her son, and a ton of stuff.

The neighborhood: 3.5/5 The downside: Lots of homeless in the area. Most are in the surrounding areas but sometimes 1-2 walk by the parking lot. A small fence, if possible, would help a lot.

The pros: You’re downtown. It’s 9 minutes by car to the 5/5 tiny zoo and sky walk. And also, 9 minutes by car to the beach, And 5 minutes walking to high quality bars and family friendly restaurants. And about 7 minutes to the...

Terrible customer service. Rude. We went to Snoozzz Inn & wish had had from the beginning. Immaculate rooms with sweet touches like fresh flowers in the room, a nice deep bath, was significantly less expensive & no creepy people coming in & out at all hours of the night. We arrived pretty late & were forced to check in with a man (in another country & when played excessively loud through a speaker in a room that echos is impossible to understand) even though they had a local guy sitting there. Then the digital check in didn't work & we had to check in with the guy at the front desk anyway! It took forever! We were tired. The bed was spring & you can feel them. We paid for a kitchenette & there were no dishes, utensils, pots, pans or dish soap. Only 2 towels for a 2 bedroom suite. Only 2 tiny pillows on each queen bed (laid out side by side they didn't reach the sides of the bed 4 might have, I'm talking kid pillows!) We were tired of being on the road & didn't want to load up again so we decided to stay another night. They refused to accept that we purchased through Expedia. They wanted us to cancel & book through them which seems super shady since they force you to check in through India. It seems like they are doxxing people for personal information to pull some scam thing on the side from India. They forced me to give my ID when my partner is who reserved the room & paid for it - never experienced that before. After we said we were going to another hotel after they refused our expedia reservation the guy in India called my partner's phone multiple times trying to pressure him to reserve with the...
