Will not regret it. All is great.
Gerald, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Older Motel across the street from the docking lot of Lake Cowichan. Decent view of the water from my room. Just a short walk down the road a plethora of eateries or bring your own food and prepare it in a wonderfully clean kitchenette with a mid-sized refrigerator. Just like anything older you could use some touch-up paint, maybe an extra pillow or two on the bed, and slightly thicker walls. The bathroom was very clean, and the water pressure terrific . All that being said, it is a jewel, especially at the offseason price of $94 a night.

Absolutely wonderful check-in staff! Room is slightly dated, but that's expected for an older building. Wonderful stay, will definitely be back.

2/10 Poor

Do not stay here!
Terrible! We paid for a kitchenette. We didn’t get a kitchenette. We bought groceries before we arrived and wasn’t able to use them. When we brought it up to the front desk, they wouldn’t refund our fees. Not to mention, the bed was terrible and lumpy, it was noisy because doors had to be slammed to properly latch them, and the windows were single pane, so all noise outside could be heard. DO NOT RECOMMEND!
