The bed and room were very comfortable. This is right across the street from a nice steakhouse and a very cute coffee/ breakfast creperie. The Driftwood had lots of character. It was not at all what I expected but sometimes good things are like that. The people were so nice and helpful! They booked dinner reservations for me and a bird/ boating tour in Halibut Cove. I’d stay here again.

Look at fine print. They have rooms with shared bathrooms. Didnt see this when booking. And the pictures on their page are not accurate to the room you get. But the staff was very pleasant.

Be prepared to share a bathroom

I was not aware there were shared bathrooms. The bed was a bunk bed that didn't allow me to setup in bed. There were no instructions for accessing the TV channels.

Great location, reasonable prices, very clean and the staff was extremely accommodating, especially for early hours to leave on our tour the next day. The coffee and snack bar in the lobby was an added bonus of convenience. Walkable to many restaurants and a beach and a short drive from the spit. Would stay again.
