We stayed here as the other motels in town were full. Located 5 minutes out of town on a quiet side street, this 2 floor motel, with outside access, has seen better days. Our room was on the second level. The concrete walkway on the second level was cracked...not a good omen....but the room, which had a double and a... More

The motel is not only old, it is decadent! Rooms are clean but stinking. Bed was unconfortable, the bathroom was small and old. Price is TOO HIGH for what you get (120 CAD)! No help from the young guy at the front desk. Next time we will definitly sleep in another place.

This is a tired, old, run down motel, used predominately by people for one night to use the ferry, or by fishermen. Its saving grace is the manageress, who is extremely friendly and helpful, and the fact that the room is clean. Otherwise, the decor is extremely shabby and dated, and is in need of a complete re-vamp, if not... More

I think that most people who stay here are either on their way to or from the ferry terminal as it is only a ten minute drive away. The hotel is located in beautiful woodland if you have time to stick around and explore (we didn't) The receptionist was incredibly friendly and efficient considering she was dealing single handedly with...

On the website it looks better from the outsite that it is. Rooms are small and very old fashioned. We heard quite a lot of noise from the people above us.from BC Ferries tp Prince Rupert. So we pay far to much for this motel. The only thing what makes it interresting is that is close to the ferry

We had a bedroom with two queen beds, a lounge, kitchenette and bathroom. Basic but nice and clean. The ideal place to stop if travelling on the ferry.

Shortest stay at a hotel ever! The carpet was badly stained; the room had an odour that hit you immediately. Going into the bedroom it became obvious that it was full of mold and mildew. We left immediately. On the positive side when we told the desk clerk we couldn't stay; she very kindly refunded our full cost. Sleeping in... More

It's old and basic, but our room was clean, and the bathroom was fine. Not very big: not much room available to organize luggage. Free Internet access on one computer in the office. Washing machines were available. No food available. Pricey ($120 total) but it's summer on a tourist path. I have stayed in other motels in the town of... More
