  decent value for cost

  We stayed there for 3 nights in off season. I believe there were only 2 other rooms occupied during our stay. The room was clean. Furniture was a bit out dated. Kitchen facilities were adequate and in good working order. When we went to pay our bill the night prior to our departure we were advised that their credit card payment computer equipment crashed due to a storm in the area the day prior to our check-in. So we had to find a ATM to get enough cash to settle our bill. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. I think we would stay there again if the rates stay reasonable.

  Disorganized, Confused, and double billed

  After a 7 hour day of riding in 30 degree temperatures we were very glad to finally be pulling up to our motel. We were greeted by an older lady, she was very nice and she proceeded to check us in. I used my visa and once the transaction said "approved" on the screen I handed the machine back to the lady, the receipt came out blank and this is where the confusion began. This nice lady needed to attach a printed receipt from that machine to a document from the computer for filing, the fact that the receipt didn't print basically shut down the entire process and she wanted to run it through my visa again. I said "no" and explained that if it didn't go through over the next couple days she could run my number through manually as I had used the number to book my room. That wasn't acceptable and she proceeded to ask for a cash payment... At this point I asked if I could just have a key to the room, her reply was "I don't know what to do" she said this 3 or more times while staring into the computer screen. I then pleaded "can I please have a room key so I can relax while you work this out, you have my credit card number and the transaction also said clearly that it was approved, you're going to have to trust me". She finally gave me a key and I proceeded to my room. The room had 2 very large spiders waiting to greet us and once we had them dealt with we sat on the beds that nearly sagged to the floor (extremely uncomfortable). We decided we would go out to grab some food and on our way out we were stopped by the lady who told me that she was unable to solve the issue. I explained that I would consider paying cash when I returned from dinner. When we got back I stopped at the office again, I was holding the cash in my hand and stood there waiting and listening as she talked on the phone for 5 mins about how to solve this issue. I'm not sure who she was talking to but I wasn't about to spent another minute waiting in that office as my vacation and rest time was being wasted so I walked out, the lady then decided to chase me down explaining that the transaction never went through. At this point I was fairly upset with the whole process and said "if you don't see the transaction go through in the next couple days then you can put it through manually using my visa number although I seen it say approved when I did the transaction" she agreed. At about 11:00 pm I got a knock on the door she came in and presented a piece of paper for me to sign, she said that she put it through manually as she had found that it didn't go through. I signed the paper, reluctantly, knowing that I would now have to keep an eye out for double billing on my visa statement. Sure enough this morning I found that the room had been double billed. I called the office, the manager explained that he was aware of my situation and that I would see a credit in 3 days to a week... what a hassle for an uncomfortable bed in a spider filled room...

  Cheep stay.

  This is an older motel. It was clean and in reasonable condition although the bathtub badly needs re-caulking and the kitchen flooring needs replacing. The soap was so small it was unusable, so be prepared to bring your own soap. Not the most comfortable stay but by no means the worst. The location is on the main road through Powell River and not far from the ferry terminal. It is fine if you are just passing through but not a multiple day destination.

  Dreadful

  This was one of the worst places I have stayed. It was dirty, the bed was terrible. Everything was unplugged as if they did not want you watching the TV to save on electrical. The fridge did not even work and despite it being warm inside with no signs of life, the owner claims it was working that morning? I understand trying to make up for your losses during covid but this place is not worth even close to what they charge. I would have been more comfortable sleeping in my car

  Do not go here

  We have stayed at this motel several times over the past few years. The only reason why we have used it is that the rates were extremely cheap. (under $50) The rooms are old and not well maintained, but that didn't really matter as the price was decent. This time however, when we checked in the price had increased to $99 a night. (2 people and a dog) As we were super tired, we reluctantly agreed, hoping they had done wonders with new furnishings. We were very disappointed. It is still very run down. The beds are ancient and sagging, the room smells like stale smoke, the paint is peeling from the walls, the carpet is dingy and dirty, the tiles are loose on the bathroom floor etc etc. I have given it a rating of 1 star because there was hot water for the shower. Do not spend your money on this hotel. We will never stay here again.
