The rooms are clean enough, but they smell of cleaning agents. The odor of the first room was unbearable for me, although some people might not mind the citris smell. The owner was kind enough to move me to another room with less odor. Alas, this room had no deadbolt or even an operable chain on the door (a chair did fit under the door handle--I've never done that before!) and the guests overhead woke me when they walked overhead. Fortunately most guests were quiet but walls and ceilings are thin and the windows rattle. Argh, not good night. The linens are fresh, but the property is a bit run down.

Basic motel stay. Dated. Suitable for a night or two passing through town if you’re not bothered by much. Excellent food choices nearby and coffee stand across the street. Great view for sunrise.

It's a very affordable option for someone looking to get away with minimal planning. There wasn't a lot of locks on the door, which to me indicates that there are never really any issues for theft there. Bed was comfy, and the air conditioner was really effective at cooling the room down. Conviently right next to a gas station and a liquor store (if you're into that). Good place to flop out and relax after a day of exploring campbell river.

The beds are incredibly uncomfortable. They sink in the middle causing both people to be squished in the middle. I used to love this location but unfortunately with the beds the way they are I won't stay again.
