Beautiful Harbour view, large sized room, quiet and clean. They have onsite parking for very cheap and is very dog friendly. The hotel doesn’t have its own food service (room service) but has an onsite restaurant. Although when we tried to have dinner there, they had very low staff and told us we wouldn’t be able to order food for 45 min so we didn’t dine there. Overall a great 1 overnight from Tofino to Victoria.
