A stay that was only meant to be three night turned into an eight night stay due to a loss of a loved one. The staff were flexible and understanding with our unexpected needs. It was very much appreciated during a very difficult time. Their kindness will not soon be forgotten. Thank you!

Everything was as expected for a hotel in that price range - clean, quiet, comfortable bed and pillows. My only complaints were the bathroom didn't seem to have a working exhaust fan and the Keurig coffee maker was a piece of junk. Made terrible coffee. We wanted to boil some water - took a lot of experimenting but were able to finally do it. Ended up bringing in our own coffee maker. I would stay there again when next visiting Port Alberni, but will remember to bring my coffee maker and coffee.
