Above the Tide Motel does not pretend to be a 5 star property. It is dated for sure, but it has a lot of good things about it too. The staff is friendly and helpful, the room was clean and the bed was comfy. Although small, the room had many conveniences, and it was was very affordable, and well located. If you like being oceanside, and I do, it has a great view of the waters between their shoreline and Quadra Island, with lots of marine birds and sea life to watch.

The location was good as you could walk downtown. The view from the balcony was amazing. The bed was pretty good. The room was clean. The ac unit was super loud. We were surprised that the building is quite old. We expected more for the price. Location and the view is what you pay for.

Hot water goes from hot to cold. Plug does not work for hair dryer. Was told light switch needs to be turned on after the fact. Sign would have been helpful. There was enough natural light that I did not need to turn on the light. To use the kettle you have to pull out the microwave and unplug it. It’s in a tight space, very hard to do. Property is very old and dated.
