Super cute and convient location, door didn’t close properly, and the room was a bit messy but all around great place to crash for a weekend

If you have allergies this musty old dump hole is not for you.
Kristina, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I liked the free Wi-Fi, the bed was comfortable, the air conditioner worked well and the location was good but the kitchen and bathroom were dirty. Soap scum in the shower, the shower curtain smelled, the microwave and kitchen floor were dirty and the fridge had a weird smell. I'm okay with old as long as it's clean but we won't be back.
Lindsay, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

So dirty and smelly. The place just reeked of bleach. Hair all over tub and shower. Beds were not made and comforters were just sort of spread out on the bed. Should have spent the extra money and stayed somewhere else.
Chris, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location is good. The property had a musty smell as we entered the room. The carpet had a damp feel. The beds were in good shape. Towels were clean. If the property has a clean paint and carpet replaced, it will be a good stay.
Makarand, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Strong unpleasant odour , could not sleep in this room .

Its perfect for a place to crash. Nothing special about it but nothing really bad either.. I would come back if I was in the area.

10/10 Exceptional

The room is huge. It is with 2 queen beds and 1 sofa bed, which can accommodate a party of 6. The room is with an electric stove and with some basic supplies.

Trailer park right behind
Melody, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

My experience at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The property appears outdated, with conditions reminiscent of a facility from the 1930s, and there was a complete absence of staff on-site to provide assistance or ensure guest safety. The overall atmosphere felt unsafe, uncomfortable, and unsettling, which made it difficult to relax or enjoy the stay. The lack of security measures, poor upkeep, and unwelcoming environment made this the most negative experience of my entire trip. Based on my stay, I cannot in good conscience recommend this hotel to anyone.

4/10 Fair

I was grateful to have a roof over my head on short notice over a high demand period that accepted pets. I am sure this place was once a very nice destination (probably 50-60 years ago). However, it was not well-maintained and the room was shabby. Credit for clean linens on the bed. Towels well past their usefulness - time to turn them into car rags. No recommendation from me.
Elaine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The price of $78 was the positive. The building needs a lot of loving. If you are looking for a bed and shower. This is for you.
Wayne, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Was great for the price well stocked kitchen
Dean, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The host was not very polite and seemed in a big hurry to check out for the day. The bedroom was hot as A/C didnt reach the room. The bed was comfortable enough, but the suite looked straight out of the 70's. We were provided with enough clean towels and kitchen equipment and he was quick to replace the broken toaster. I'd never been to Port Alberni, but the neighborhood was older, but safe enough. The cost did not reflect the quality and I'd probably not return, unless I needed a quick rest stop.
Amiee, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Bring your own coffee, milk, sugar and dishsoap. I preferred to use my kettle. Lots of space. Old bedspread and insulating blankets. Windows allow fresh air for decent sleep.
Judy, 1-night trip

I always stay here when I visit port Alberni Great guy and good prices

A Very Poor Establishment

The motel was extremely old. There were electrical cords on the floor and strung on the walls. I would suggest detonate not renovate. Beds were comfortable. Internet access was extremely difficult and there were only 2 specific areas in the room you could get access - one of which required you to stand up. For the price, I would say NEVER stay here.
Glenn, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Quiet adequate accommodation for the night. There appeared to be no heating in the main bedroom, but adequate blankets were provided. Difficulty experienced on check-in with payment-machine appeared to be down so needed to pay cash; fortunately I had enough cash with me
Brian, 1-night trip

Old hotel but not expensive

Good value for money but an old motel in poor condition.
